Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in MicroRNA Binding Sites: Implications in Colorectal Cancer

Figure 2

This chart shows the level of the increase in expression against its decrease. Here, the blue bars represent site breakage and decrease in binding efficiency of miRNAs and the red bars indicate the creation of sites and the increase in binding efficiency. The -axis corresponds to the number of microRNAs an SNP can target and the -axis shows the specific SNP id concerned. In this chart, we can see underexpression of genes because of the higher levels of creation and enhancement.
