Abstract excerpt
The occurrence of natural variation in human microRNAs has been the focus of numerous studies during the last 20 years. Most of them have been focused on the role of specific mutations in disease, while a minor proportion seek to analyse microRNA diversity in the genomes of human populations. We analyse the latest human microRNA annotations in the light of the most updated catalogue of genetic variation provided...
