A curated benchmark of enhancer-gene interactions for evaluating enhancer-target gene prediction methods.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Variants of microRNAs (miRNAs), called isomiRs, are commonly reported in deep-sequencing studies; however, the functional significance of these variants remains controversial. Observational studies show that isomiR patterns are non-random, hinting that these molecules could be regulated and therefore functio...
