Description: Examples of miRNA stem-loops, with the mature miRNAs shown in red. Shown are predicted stem-loop secondary structures within the pri-RNA molecules that give rise to the lin-4 miRNA of C. elegans and the miR-1 miRNA of humans. This figure was drawn based on studies that cloned and sequenced mature miRNAs and predicted the corresponding stem-loops. [1][2]
