miRvar

RNA Type: miRNA

Overview: miRvar is a curated database of genetic variants of miRNA loci in the human genome. The goal of the database is to foster a better understanding of miRNAs and their effect in biological processes to understand the relationship with the genomic variations in these loci.

Search Methods:

• Keyword: search by geographic origin and terms by TAG option.
• TAG: search by miRNA name, chromosome, disease association, location on hairpin.
