mir-344
Identifiers
Symbol	mir-344
Rfam	RF00825
miRBase family	MIPF0000267
Other data
RNA type	microRNA
Domain(s)	Eukaryota;
PDB structures	PDBe

In molecular biology mir-344 microRNA is a short RNA molecule. MicroRNAs function to regulate the expression levels of other genes by several mechanisms. The pre-miR-344 is transcribed directly as a precursor microRNA hairpin and thus contains a 5' m7G-cap.
