Figure 3From: microRNA expression in the prefrontal cortex of individuals with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorderRegarding the 11 isolated miRNAs distinguished in schizophrenia, this figure shows the distances (numbers of bases) from shared 5' motifs we discovered (two 8 nt and two 12 nt motif sequences in the pri-miRNA) to the ssRNA-dsRNA junctions at starts of pre-miRNAs. Pre-miR-30a and -9-1 have double motif instances; second instances are in the rectangle. Ignoring the second instances as redundant leaves some motif distances in sharp clusters.Back to article page
