Human MicroRNA Targets

Distribution of Transcripts with Cooperativity of Target Sites and Estimated Number of False Positives

Each bar reflects the number of human transcripts with a given number of target sites on their UTR. Estimated rate of false positives (e.g., 39% for ≥2 targets) is given by the number of target sites predicted using shuffled miRNAs processed in a way identical to real miRNAs, including the use of interspecies conservation filter.
