Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionmir-258.1 encodes a microRNA, a small non-protein coding RNA; there are two copies of mir-258 in the genome: mir-258.1 and mir-258.2; mir-258.1 is uniformly expressed from the embryonic stage to the adult stage; many of the known microRNAs are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of genes; the precise function of miR-258.1 is unknown.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00005879

RemarkThere are 2 copies of mir-258 in the genome. The gene now named mir-258.1 was the first copy characterised and was known as mir-258Curator_confirmedWBPerson2970
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
The annotation of cel-mir-258 as a microRNA was questioned by Jan et al (Nature 2011 469:97-101). The pattern of reads from deep sequencing datasets aggregated in miRBase and mapping to the locus is not consistent with microRNA processing. The sequence is removed from miRBase 21.
