miRBase

miRBase is an online database that catalogs and provides detailed information about microRNAs (miRNAs), which are small molecules involved in regulating gene activity in cells. It serves as a reference for scientists to access and share data on miRNA sequences, their functions, and related research. By organizing this information, miRBase helps researchers understand how miRNAs influence biological processes and diseases, supporting studies in genetics, medicine, and biology. It is an essential resource for advancing knowledge about gene regulation mechanisms across different species.
