Human miRNA Annotations (miRBase-style)
mirna_annotation.Rd
A curated dataset mapping human mature miRNA identifiers to their corresponding miRBase precursor accessions.
Format
A data frame with two columns and multiple rows (1 per miRNA):
- identifier
Character string representing the mature miRNA ID, including the species prefix (e.g.,
"hsa-miR-6129"
).- accession
miRBase accession number for the precursor miRNA hairpin (e.g.,
"MI0021274"
).
Details
This dataset enables annotation and cross-referencing of mature miRNA names with miRBase precursor IDs. It is useful for linking results from miRNA expression studies with external reference databases such as miRBase.
The identifier
field typically corresponds to results from expression matrices, differential analysis tools, or network analysis pipelines.
