![Fig. 4 miR-137 directly targets SLC1A5 in melanoma cells. a Sequence alignment of miR-137 and the 3′-UTR of SLC1A5 or SLC38A1. The seed sequence of miR-137 and the binding sites in 3′-UTR are indicated in red. The 3′-UTR mutants containing mismatched nucleotides are shown at the bottom. The binding site of SLC1A5 is highly conserved in several species (left), but the binding site of SLC38A1 is not conserved between different species (right). b miR-137 overexpression inhibited the expression of 3′-UTR-luciferase reporter of SLC1A5 in A375 and G-361 cells, but the mutant construct was immune to miR-137. Data are mean ± SD from three independent experiments. ***p < 0.001; n.s. not significant. c miR-137 overexpression has no effect on the expression of 3′-UTR-luciferase reporter of SLC38A1 in A375 and G-361 cells. d miR-137 regulates the mRNA level of SLC1A5 in A375 and G-361 cells. The mRNA levels were measured by quantitative RT-PCR, data are mean ± SD from three independent experiments. **p < 0.01. e The protein levels of SLC1A5 were modulated by miR-137 in A375 and G-361 cells.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
