TAPIR
TAPIR is a web server designed
for the prediction of plant microRNA targets. The server offers the
possibility to search for plant miRNA targets using a fast and a precise
algorithm. The precise option is much slower but guarantees to
find less perfectly paired miRNA - target duplexes. Furthermore, the
precise option allows the prediction of target mimics, which are characterized
by a miRNA - target duplex having a large loop, making
them undetectable by traditional tools.
