If i have a set of miRNA sequences, what are the tools that are available to predict the target genes? I tried miRanda and mirdb, are there any tools or databases that do the same, as the rna is not already known i cant use targetscan etc. The tool must predict the target from the fasta sequence of miRNA.
Thank you

miRSearch is an online tool designed to quickly identify microRNAs (miRs) that target specific gene transcripts. miRSearch uses an advanced cross-referencing system to identify validated and predicted miRs for any target. miRSearch version 3.0 contains several new features: disease and tissue information, detailed microRNA information and updated target predictions.
