SARS-CoV-2 genome titrates the abundance of functionally important miRs in human tissue (A) Violin plot shows the statistically significant (p-value < e-05) preferential binding profile of miR-motifs (sorted by frequency of binding >15 sites) across the SARS-CoV-2 viral genome (length normalized) identified using FIMO. (B) Hierarchically clustered heatmap showing the log10 expression (CPM, row normalized) of miRs across tissues. (C) Bar-plot illustrating the significant biological processes, obtained from gene ontology enrichment based functional grouping of miR target genes (obtained from miRNet). Significant clustering (adj. p < 1e-10) of genes enriched in GO-biological processes generated by ClueGO analysis (Cytoscape plugin).
