The relationship between the evolution of microRNA targets and the length of their UTRs

BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small RNA molecules that modulate the gene expression at the post-transcription levels in many eukaryotic cells. Their widespread and important role in animals is gauged by estimates that ~25% of all genes are miRNA targets. RESULTS: We perform a systema...
