摘要: MicroRNAs play important roles in most biological processes, including cell proliferation, tissue differentiation, and embryonic development, among others. They originate from precursor transcripts (pre-miRNAs), which contain phylogenetically conserved stem–loop structures. An bioinformatics problem is to distinguish the pre-miRNAs pseudo that have similar We present here a novel method for tackling this problem. Our method, named MirID, accepts an RNA sequence as input, classifies either positive (i.e., real pre-miRNA) or negative pre-miRNA). MirID employs feature mining algorithm finding combinations of features suitable building pre-miRNA classification models. These models are implemented using support vector machines, combined construct classifier ensemble. The accuracy ensemble further enhanced by utilization AdaBoost algorithm. When compared with two closely related tools on twelve species analyzed these tools, outperforms existing majority species. was also tested nine additional species, results showed high accuracies web server fully operational freely accessible at http://bioinformatics.njit.edu/MirID/. Potential applications software genomics medicine discussed.
