It is difficult to write a web page about unpublished research, as a web page is publication. I want to advocate my ideas, but I don't want to share anything that could hurt my career. Much more details about what I've done will appear here after my next article is published.
As a Computer Scientist, I am working on quantifying and predicting the effects of miRNA targeting. We know the RISC binds to mRNA with sequences complementary to nucleotides 2-8 of the miRNA. However, not all locations with complements are biologically relevant, and in animals, having a mismatch or gap is possible. When a target is confirmed, the miRNA might slightly decrease protein expression, or completely eliminate it, or even an increase protein expression.
