Allelic imbalance sequencing reveals that single-nucleotide polymorphisms frequently alter microRNA-directed repression.

Abstract excerpt
Genetic changes that help explain the differences between two individuals might create or disrupt sites complementary to microRNAs (miRNAs), but the extent to which such polymorphic sites influence miRNA-mediated repression is unknown. Here, we describe a method to measure mRNA allelic imbalances associated with a regulatory site found in mRNA transcribed from one allele but not found in that transcribed from the...
