hsTargets {microRNA} | R Documentation

## Human microRNAs and their target IDs

### Description

A set of human microRNA names and their corresponding known targets given as ensembl Trascript IDs.

### Usage

    data(hsTargets)

### Format

A data frame of microRNAs and their target ensembl IDs as recovered from miRBase. Additional columns are also provided to give the Chromosome as well as the start and end position of the microRNA binding site, and the strand orientation (plus or minus).

### Details

Each mapping represents a different human microRNA, paired with one viable target. Other information about where the microRNA binds is also included. Some microRNAs have multiple targets and so some microRNAs may be represented more than once.
