Figure 8.3: Workflows at the core <strong>of</strong> the primitive functions <strong>of</strong> the GenemiR s<strong>of</strong>tware.<br />

The first workflow answers the question: "which microRNAs target this list<br />

<strong>of</strong> genes?" and returns a list <strong>of</strong> microRNAs filtered according to the Minimum or<br />

Cumulative filter or both. The second workflow answers the question: "which genes<br />

are targeted by this list <strong>of</strong> microRNAs?" and returns a list <strong>of</strong> genes filtered according<br />

to the settings <strong>of</strong> the Minimum or Cumulative filter or both.<br />

pair-wise alignments to filter seed sequences conserved in 7 species <strong>of</strong><br />

Drosophila and 8 species <strong>of</strong> vertebrates. In addition to sequence conser-<br />

vation, PicTar considers secondary evidence, such as co-expression and<br />

clustering <strong>of</strong> microRNAs, as well as target identification based on onto-<br />

logical parameters, such as expression in the common cell types or devel-<br />
