| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on publicly available by-organ human transcriptome data sets and exhaustive microRNA (miRNA) target prediction, the present study quantitatively demonstrates that the miRNA targeting characteristic of mutually exclusive expression between miRNAs and target genes is formed by mammalian evolution. This study also revealed quantitatively that human miRNAs prefer targeting genes with intermediate levels of expression and that the preference has been formed by mammalian evolution.
