Abstract excerpt
We have discovered that 5'-CG-3' dinucleotide and 5'-CNG-3' trinucleotide are found in published sequences of small interfering RNA and microRNA more often than they should be found in a random sequence. This circumstance is evidence of an important biological purpose of 5'-CG-3' dinucleotides and 5'-CNG-3' trinucleotides in small RNA sequences. We suppose that small RNAs containing mentioned di- and...
