MicroRNAs as Oncogenes and Tumor Suppressors
Abstract
Recent discoveries related to microRNAs, RNA interference, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), and small modulatory RNAs have revealed a new class of mechanisms of gene regulation that are mediated by small, noncoding RNAs. Among these small RNAs are the microRNAs. These are thought to control gene expression at the post-transcriptional level by degrading or repressing target messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Surprisingly simple and elegant, microRNA-mediated gene regulation is guided by the base-pairing rules of Watson and Crick.MicroRNAs are individually encoded by their own set of genes and are an integral component of the genetic program. Some are located in noncoding regions . . .

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.
