Abstract
Recently, the emergence of non-coding miRNA has attracted biology and computer researchers. miRNA plays an important role in regulation of genes. Finding motifs in RNA is one of important topics. In our work, we attempt to find motifs in mature miRNA from combinations ranging from two to ten nucleotides. Interestingly, we have found several motifs only appear in mature miRNA but not appear in other regions of primary miRNA sequences taken from latest miRNA datasets. The findings of our investigation may help in the building model to predict all possible miRNAs in genomes 1.
