[BioC] pair information of microRNA and Targets prediction

[michael watson (IAH-C)]

Hi

We published an R package early in 2009 which may help you:

http://bioinformatics.iah.ac.uk/software/corna

Wu X, Watson M: CORNA: testing gene lists for regulation by microRNAs. Bioinformatics 2009, 25(6):832-833.

CORNA can download data directly from miRBase targets (now called Microcosm targets) but this hasn't been updated in a while.  CORNA can, though, take any generic list of miR:gene target pairs and use that instead.

Thanks

Hi Weihsin,

My understanding is that microRNA only contains example data (so the
exact version for the data source is of moderate importance). The only
package containing database data might be "RmiR.Hs.miRNA" (dependency of
RmiR). The version might be indicated in the source code (check the SVN
repository for that bioconductor package), otherwise the author should
be contacted.
