The context signals of mitochondrial miRNAs (mitomiRs) of mammals by O. V. Vishnevsky, P. S. Vorozheykin, I. I. Titov

“…To isolate signals that may be responsible for the mitomiRs’ functions or for their translocation from or into mitochondria a context analysis was carried out for the sequences.  For three species in the group mitomiRs/non-mitomiRs and the group of all miRNAs from the miRBase database statistically overrepresented 8-letter motifs were identified (p-value < 0.01 with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons), for these motifs the patterns of the localization in functionally important regions for different types of miRNAs were found. …”
