Characterization of MicroRNA* Species in Peking Duck Skin

         

摘要

A substantial fraction of miRNA*species are conserved in animals and can repress activities of target genes. This study aims to investigate the miRNA*species in duck skin by using Solexa sequencing. We obtained a total of 96 miRNA*species in two skin small RNA libraries and identified 56 miRNA/miRNA*(miR/miR*) pairs. Nucleotide bias of miRNA*indicated that the priority was C>A>U>G for the first nucleotide and U>C>A>G for the last nucleotide. Comparison analyses showed that 3′-U accounted for a higher proportion in the 56 miR/miR*pairs. Among the top 20 expressed miRNA*species, 17 were shared by two libraries and most of the miRNA*species were highly conservative, especially in the“seed region”. miR-199a*were expressed highly in our samples, which was also previously shown abundant in mouse hair follicle. Furthermore, four miRNA*species were predicted to target their genes in signal pathways of feather follicle development and feather morphogenesis despite very low levels.
