Dme-mir-100 is a mature microRNA in Drosophila melanogaster, with the "dme" prefix indicating the organism and "mir-100" being a sequentially assigned number [PMC4718083]. It is part of a microRNA gene naming convention, with dme-mir-100 and dme-mir-100* representing the guide and passenger strands, respectively [PMC3965103]. This microRNA has been selected for study due to its orthology with human miRNAs and its relevance in laboratory data [PMC5090246]. Dme-mir-100 shares extensive overall similarity with human miRNAs hsa-miR-10a and hsa-miR-10b, despite some mismatches at the 5′ end [PMC2486268]. The expression of dme-mir-100 is subject to complex post-transcriptional regulation, as evidenced by its low correlation coefficients when compared to other miRNAs* in expression profiles [PMC3150300]. Additionally, tissue-specific A-to-I editing has been observed for dme-mir-100 in male heads and Kc167 cell line, indicating a level of regulation during its maturation process [PMC3150300]. The correlation analysis within the 100~125 cluster suggests intricate regulatory interactions involving dme-mir-125 and dme-let-7 as well as post-transcriptional modifications like A-to-I editing being potential regulatory mechanisms for dme-mir-100 [PMC3150300]. This microRNA has also been implicated in metamorphosis development in Drosophila melanogaster alongside other miRNAs such as Dme-let7 and Dme-miR125 [PMC5689003].
