One strand of the duplex, which incorporates into RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) and silences the gene expression is called guide strand, or miRNA; while the other strand of duplex is degraded and called the passenger strand, or miRNA*.

Additional loci enriched for sRNA production were characterised. 15 novel microRNAs (miRNAs) were predicted, including miRNA* sequences, including a novel locus that may encode a dual miRNA or a miRNA and short interfering RNAs (siRNAs).

We first integrated miRNAs into various meaningful categories according to prior knowledge, such as miRNA family, miRNA cluster, miRNA function, miRNA associated diseases, and tissue specificity.
