MicroRNAs (miRNAs), as a kind of important small endogenous single-stranded non-coding RNA, play critical roles in a large number of human diseases. However, the currently known experimental verifications of the disease-miRNA associations are still rare and experimental identification is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Accordingly, identifying potential disease-related miRNAs to help people understand the pathogenesis of complex diseases has become a hot topic.
Although thousands of pseudogenes have been annotated in the human genome, their transcriptional regulation, expression profiles and functional mechanisms are largely unknown. In this study, we developed dreamBase (http://rna.sysu.edu.cn/dreamBase) to facilitate the investigation of DNA modification, RNA regulation and protein binding of potential expressed pseudogenes from multidimensional high-throughput sequencing data.
Our database aim to make it easy for researchers to find the right tools or data source for their own specific study in miRNA field. Now we have collect >1000 tools. This database will update when every new 100 tools add in. Last update time 22nd April, 2018 (v1.2).
