Migration Report

miRWalk is online again. The migration is almost complete. Some functions have not yet been activated, but will be available in the course of next week. Our team is working flat out to finalise the migration. We are also working on the destination prediction tools, which should be available in the course of the year. If any errors occur, please let us know.

Kind regards, the miRWalk team.


Search for a single gene or miRNA

miRNAs: miRNA names (e.g. hsa-miR-214-3p) or Accession numbers (e.g. MIMAT0000271) based on current miRBase. While searching single miRNAs, also short names or family miRNA(e.g. let-7) belongs to several miRNAs are also acceptible. A list of miRNAs will be shown. mRNAs: Official Genesymbols (e.g. GAS2), EntrezIDs (e.g. 10608), Ensembl-IDs (e.g. ENSG00000148935 or ENST00000454584) and RefseqIDs (e.g. NM_001143830) were accepted.



Target Mining

The Target Mining page provides an advanced search option for several miRNAs or gene targets. You may provide your own miRNA or gene list. Alternatively, you may choose the pre-compiled pathway gene list from the page [not implemented yet]. When searching for miRNA gene targets, full mature miRNA names are required. For the search of miRNA regulators, you may provide either NCBI gene IDs or official gene symbols.

Version of miRWalk

miRWalk version 3 is still in development. The Core of the data (gene target interaction) are final and can be used. For bug reports, comments or suggestions, please email to mirwalkteam (mirwalkteam [at] medma.uni-heidelberg.de). This would help us to build a database for the science community. Data from previous version (e.g. miRWalk 2) is still available for download. Please contact the miRWalk team.
