Short NamemiRTarBase
Full NameThe Experimentally Validated microRNA-target Interactions Database

Last ObservedJuly 6th, 2017
DescriptionmiRTarBase is a database of miRNA-target interactions (MTIs), which are collected by manually surveying pertinent literature after NLP of the text systematically to filter research articles related to functional studies of miRNAs. Generally, the collected MTIs are validated experimentally by reporter assay, western blot, microarray and next-generation sequencing experiments. While containing the largest amount of validated MTIs, the miRTarBase provides the most updated collection by comparing with other similar, previously developed databases.
