Abstract
miRNAs are small non - coding RNA molecules which regulate the gene expression at translational and post - transcriptional level by targeting mRNA. In today’s world miRNA have enormous role in various functions which involves vertebrates, invertebrates, plants and viruses etc., to know the importance of each miRNA candidates in human and mice, we designed this database called as miRNA Database, which integrate the data from various sources and explain functions of each miRNA candidate and their expressions in cell lines. Currently miRNA Database gives the information of 100 miRNA lists and expression in different cell types. Future approach: We are going to incorporate some of the remaining miRNAs and also update the existing miRNAs list
