Comments

mir-87 is has found to be most abundant in the L1 stage of larval development in Caenorhabditis elegans. mir-87 orthologues have been found in C. briggsae, Drosophila melanogaster and humans [1]. The extents of the dominant mature miRNA species are adjusted here in accordance with a large scale cloning and sequencing study [4].
