part_of small_regulatory_ncRNA pre_miRNA moR SO:0002032 kareneilbeck 2015-01-09T13:57:43Z A non-coding transcript encoded by sequences adjacent to the ends of the 5' and 3' miR-encoding sequences that abut the loop in precursor miRNA. MoRs are generated from miR hairpins that are longer and can produce two functional miR per strand. They are called moRs because they are not located next to the loop and thus their biogenesis process is a little different, but functionally, they are supposed to act like miRs. It is the same for loRs that are the loop fragments, they are generated differently than miRs or moRs but if loaded into the risc they are supposed to act the same way miRs do.
