- Predicted gene targets of miRNAs were computed independently using three commonly used prediction algorithms: miRanda-mirSVR [7], TargetScan [8] and SVMicrO [9]. For each prediction algorithm, the frequency of target genes displaying changes in gene expression IC, PC or NC with changes in expression of their regulating miRNAs are shown. The number of predicted target genes falling into each class is presented in parentheses.
