miRDiana
MATLAB package to find the miRNAs targeting a list of genes
To select miRNA target genes we developed software in MATLAB® (MathWorks®) called miRDiana that collects the union of mouse validated targets from the TargetScan, MicroCosm, mirTarBase and miRWalk 2.0 databases. Firstly, the software downloads each database and preprocesses by standardizing the miRNA and gene names. It strips the miRNA names from the species ids and converts the gene names to the official symbols of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database. Next...
