Abstract
microRNAs (miRNAs) are active in various biological processes by mediating gene expression, and the full investigation of miRNA transcription is crucial for understanding the mechanisms underlying miRNA deregulation in pathological conditions. Here an updated TransmiR v3.0 database is presented with more comprehensive miRNA transcription regulation information, which contains 5095 transcription factor (TF) -miRNA regulations curated from 2285 papers and >6 million TF–miRNA regulations derived from ChIP-seq data. Currently, TransmiR v3.0 covers 3260 TFs, 4253 miRNAs and 514 433 TF–miRNA regulation pairs across 29 organisms. Additionally, motif scanning of TF loci on promoter sequences of miRNAs from multiple species is employed to predict TF–miRNA regulations, generating 284 527 predicted TF–miRNA regulations. Besides the significant growth of data volume, we also improve the annotations for TFs and miRNAs by introducing the TF family, TFBS motif, and expression profiles for several species. Moreover, the functionality of the TransmiR v3.0 online database is enhanced, including allowing batch search for flexible queries and offering more extensive disease-specific, as well as newly sex-specific TF–miRNA regulation networks in the ‘Network’ module. TransmiR v3.0 provides a useful resource for studying miRNA biogenesis regulation and can be freely accessed at http://www.cuilab.cn/transmir.
期刊介绍:
Nucleic Acids Research (NAR) is a scientific journal that publishes research on various aspects of nucleic acids and proteins involved in nucleic acid metabolism and interactions. It covers areas such as chemistry and synthetic biology, computational biology, gene regulation, chromatin and epigenetics, genome integrity, repair and replication, genomics, molecular biology, nucleic acid enzymes, RNA, and structural biology. The journal also includes a Survey and Summary section for brief reviews. Additionally, each year, the first issue is dedicated to biological databases, and an issue in July focuses on web-based software resources for the biological community. Nucleic Acids Research is indexed by several services including Abstracts on Hygiene and Communicable Diseases, Animal Breeding Abstracts, Agricultural Engineering Abstracts, Agbiotech News and Information, BIOSIS Previews, CAB Abstracts, and EMBASE.
