The miRBase Sequence Database is a searchable database of published miRNA sequences and annotation. The data were previously provided by the miRNA Registry. Each entry in the miRBase Sequence database represents a predicted hairpin portion of a miRNA transcript (termed mir in the database), with information on the location and sequence of the mature miRNA sequence (termed miR).

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in miRBase pre-miRNA should match this regular expression:
^MI\d{7}$

Example Local Unique Identifier
MI0026471   Resolve
Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from miRBase pre-miRNA should match this regular expression:
^mirbase:MI\d{7}$

Example CURIE
mirbase:MI0026471

Providers

A provider turns a local unique identifiers from a resource into a URI. Many providers are also resolvable as URLs (i.e., they can be used in a web browser).

The local unique identifier MI0026471 is used to demonstrate the providers available for miRBase pre-miRNA. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
