Abstract

In this chapter we discuss computational methods for the prediction of microRNA (miRNA) targets. More specifically, we consider machine learning-based approaches and explain why these methods have been relatively unsuccessful in reducing the number of false positive predictions. Further we suggest approaches designed to improve their performance by considering tissue-specific target regulation. We argue that the miRNA targetome differs depending on the tissue type and introduce a novel algorithm that predicts miRNA targets specifically for colorectal cancer. We discuss features of miRNAs and target sites that affect target recognition, and how next-generation sequencing data can support the identification of novel miRNAs, differentially expressed miRNAs and their tissue-specific mRNA targets. In addition, we introduce some experimental approaches for the validation of miRNA targets as well as web-based resources sharing predicted and validated miRNA target interactions.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 29 April 2017.
All research outputs
#18,171,423
of 23,344,526 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#7,419
of 13,338 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#221,761
of 310,648 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#149
of 263 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,344,526 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,338 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 310,648 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 263 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
