MIR6124 Gene

HGNC Family Non-coding RNAs
Name microRNA 6124
Description microRNAs (miRNAs) are short (20-24 nt) non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in multicellular organisms by affecting both the stability and translation of mRNAs. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as part of capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) that can be either protein-coding or non-coding. The primary transcript is cleaved by the Drosha ribonuclease III enzyme to produce an approximately 70-nt stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further cleaved by the cytoplasmic Dicer ribonuclease to generate the mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing with the miRNA and most commonly results in translational inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. The RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nRecent analyses of purine and pyrimidine organization in non‐coding RNAs hint that miRNAs, including MIR6124, may play specialized roles in gene regulation. In one study across primates and rodents, the authors quantified the non‐random distribution of nucleotide classes in miRNAs using metrics such as fractal dimension, Hurst exponent, Hamming distance, density distribution, and Shannon entropy to identify distinct clustering patterns. Although the study did not detail individual functional assays for MIR6124, its inclusion within this group of miRNAs that deviate significantly from random nucleotide arrangements implies that its unique purine–pyrimidine pattern may influence its secondary structure and, in turn, its regulatory interactions with target mRNAs. These findings suggest that the inherent sequence organization of MIR6124 could be crucial for its role in post‐transcriptional gene regulation across species."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Jayanta Kumar Das, Pabitra Pal Choudhury, Adwitiya Chaudhuri, et al.
