Softwares / Bioinformatics algorithms and siRNA efficacy prediction

12 December 2012 1 4K Report

Can somebody suggest the known bioinformatics programs / algorithms / web server to predict the "siRNA with their efficacy level" against the submitted mRNA sequences. I know one of the method is 'desiRM: designing of complementary and mismatch siRNAs'. Please suggest me more similar programs / softwares please. Thank you.

Hi,

I suppose you know that you have a lot of prediction programs

http://www.ncrna.org/KnowledgeBase/link-database/mirna_target_database

I would advise you : http://targetscan.org/

It's really easy to use, and often updated

If you are studying miRNAs function, I advise you this wonderful tool : http://www.mirnabodymap.org/

Best regards,
