hsa-mir-620: Hsa-mir-620 is a microRNA that has been studied in various contexts. The variant T allele of rs241456 has been found to increase the minimum free energy (MFE) of binding for hsa-mir-620 compared to the common C allele [PMC9692299]. Hsa-mir-620 has been implicated in the silencing of over 100 target mRNAs [PMC3375551]. It has been suggested that a 63-nt fragment released from SncmtRNA-1 acts as a "sponge" to trap hsa-mir-620 and relieve its negative effect on the expression of PML mRNA [PMC3375551]. Hsa-mir-620 is highly complementary to a 63-nt fragment and is connected to other miRNAs in an interaction network [PMC8798919]. It has also been identified as one of the top miRNAs for sponging by circEPS15 and circ_PTN [PMC8861492] [PMC8607136]. Hsa-mir-620 is differentially targeted by nine miRNAs depending on the allele, including hsa-miR-1270, hsa-miR-522, and hsa-miR-124 [PMC3559822]. It has also been identified as one of 16 candidate miRNAs for gastric cancer diagnosis [PMC7882724]. Analysis showed that hsa-mir-620 had 11 repeats and was unaltered in microsatellite instability (MSI) samples [PMC3279428]. The gene for hsa-mir-620 displays length variations with 15 alleles found in healthy individuals [PMC3279428].
