Abstract excerpt
MicroRNAs (or miRNAs) are short nucleotide sequences (~17-22 bp long) that play important roles in gene regulation through targeting genes in the 3'untranslated regions (UTRs). Variants located in genomic regions might have different biological consequences in changing gene expression. Exonic variants (e.g., coding variant and 3'UTR variant) are often causative of diseases due to their influence on gene product....
