Combinatorial miRNA target prediction tool

ComiR (Combinatorial miRNA targeting) predicts whether a given mRNA is targeted by a set of miRNAs. ComiR uses miRNA expression to improve and combine multiple miRNA targets for each of the four prediction algorithms: miRanda, PITA, TargetScan and mirSVR. The composite scores of the four algorithms are then combined using a support vector machine trained on Drosophila Ago1 IP data. Click here to run ComiR Last update: 12/02/2013 What's new?
