Plugin: TargetScan -- miRNA target prediction

TargetScanS predicts biological targets of miRNAs by searching for the presence of conserved 8mer and 7mer sites that match the seed region of each miRNA. This search page of TargetScan Release 4.2 retrieves predicted regulatory targets of mammalian microRNAs. Targets are predicted using the TargetScanS algorithm and are mostly the same as those published in January 2005 (ref. 1) and presented in previous versions of the TargetScan site (Releases 2.0, 2.1, 3.0, 3.1, and 4.1). In this release, the context scores, calculated as described in reference 2, are provided for each site. Because the context of the site is important for site efficacy, these scores can be used to predict site performance.
