i have microRNA sequences and 3'UTR sequences i donot know which R package to scan microRNA target? thank you if you have coding,please share with me -- shan gao Room 231(Dr.Fei lab) Boyce Thompson Institute Cornell University Tower Road, Ithaca, NY 14853-1801 Office phone: 1-607-254-1267(day) Official email:sg839 at cornell.edu Facebook:http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001986532253

Does the string matching functionality provided in Biostrings not get you where you want to be? cf. matchPattern and friends. Of course, miRNA seed matches don't tell the whole (?any?)) of the story, so ... are you looking for something more "sophisticated," or? -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Graduate Student: Computational Systems Biology ?| Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center ?| Weill Medical College of Cornell University Contact Info: http://cbio.mskcc.org/~lianos/contact

no, it is not so simple there are many algorithms to scan microRNA on 3'UTR NOT match? SOME people call it miRNA target prediction like picTar or miRanda -- shan gao Room 231(Dr.Fei lab) Boyce Thompson Institute Cornell University Tower Road, Ithaca, NY 14853-1801 Office phone: 1-607-254-1267(day) Official email:sg839 at cornell.edu Facebook:http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001986532253

I bet you'd get pretty close to such methods by doing a seed match (w/ or w/o m1A rule) and filter by conservation if you want to do some type of analysis (functional enrichments of "targets", or something). If you want to do better, see if you can't encourage your collaborators to do some type of differential *-CLIP experiment ... more data == more fun :-) -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Graduate Student: Computational Systems Biology ?| Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center ?| Weill Medical College of Cornell University Contact Info: http://cbio.mskcc.org/~lianos/contact

yeah you are totally right i need a pipeline also, we developed a miRNA target prediction software-- humitar but i need a pipeline -- shan gao Room 231(Dr.Fei lab) Boyce Thompson Institute Cornell University Tower Road, Ithaca, NY 14853-1801 Office phone: 1-607-254-1267(day) Official email:sg839 at cornell.edu Facebook:http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001986532253
