Comprehensive list of microRNA target database and softwares - microRNA target database and softwares (May/16/2011 )

Comprehensive list of microRNA target database and softwares as follows:

(1)miRBase: it is a gold-standard database of microRNA sequences. it provided links of microRNA targets predicted by other target predictions, such as PicTar. release date: Sept, 2010. website: http://mirbase.org/

(2)starBase: A public platform for exploring miRNA-target interactions from CLIP-Seq (HITS-CLIP, PAR-CLIP) and degradome sequencing (PARE) data. It also provides intersections of multiple target predictions, such as Targetscan, PicTar, miRanda, PITA, RNA22 and miRSVR. release date: May, 2011. website: http://starbase.sysu.edu.cn/

(3)TarBase: A database of experimentally supported animal microRNA targets. release date: January, 2009. website: http://microrna.gr/tarbase/

(4)miRecords: an integrated microRNA target database. It provides miRNA-target relationships predicted by multiple target predictions, such as Targetscan, PicTar, miRanda, PITA and RNA22.

(5) targetScan: a well-known software for predicting microRNA targets from conserved UTR sequences. It was developed by Bartel lab. release date: April, 2009 (v5.1). website: http://www.targetscan.org/

(6) PicTar: a software for predicting microRNA targets by combining multiple microRNAs or targets. It was developed by Rajewsky lab. release date: March, 2007. website: http://pictar.mdc-berlin.de/

new miRNA target database.

(1) ChIPBase, decoding the post-transcriptional and transcriptional regulation of microRNAs from CLIP-Seq and ChIP-Seq data. It constructed TF(transcription factor)->microRNA->targetsregulatory networks.

(2) doRiNA: a database of RNA interactions in post-transcriptional regulation.

Thanks for the useful links. Do you know about the Nucleic Acids Research Online Database (see links on right hand side of page here)?
