The differences between canonical miRNAs and the wider miRNAome in terms of expression, clustering, dysregulation, and prognostic standpoint were investigated. The combination of canonical miRNAs and modified miRNAs boosted the quality of clustering results, outlining unique clinicopathologic features among cohorts. Certain modified miRNAs showed opposite expression from their canonical counterparts in cancer, potentially impacting their targets and function. Finally, a shifted and edited miRNA isoform was experimentally validated to directly bind and suppress a unique target. These findings outline the importance of going beyond the well-established paradigm of one mature miRNA per miRNA arm to elucidate novel mechanisms related to cancer progression.]]> Wed 22 Nov 2023 10:18:51 AEDT ]]> MiREDiBase, a manually curated database of validated and putative editing events in microRNAs https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48640 Fri 24 Mar 2023 13:23:39 AEDT ]]>
