_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     A data frame of human microRNA target sites retrieved from
     MiRBase. This is a subset of the 'hsTargets' data frame in the
     'microRNA' package. See the 'rtracklayer' vignette for more
     details.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     data(targets)

_F_o_r_m_a_t:

     A data frame with 2981 observations on the following 6 variables.

     '_n_a_m_e' The miRBase ID of the microRNA.

     '_t_a_r_g_e_t' The Ensembl ID of the targeted transcript.

     '_c_h_r_o_m' The name of the chromosome for target site.

     '_s_t_a_r_t' Target start position.

     '_e_n_d' Target stop position.

     '_s_t_r_a_n_d' The strand of the target site, '"+"', or  '"-"'.

_S_o_u_r_c_e:

     The 'microRNA' package, dataset 'hsTargets'. Originally MiRBase
     (<URL: http://microrna.sanger.ac.uk/>).

_E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s:

     data(targets)
     targetTrack <- with(targets, 
         GenomicData(IRanges(start, end), 
                     strand = strand, chrom = chrom))
