摘要: Ovis aries is one of the most important agricultural livestock for meat production, and also is an ideal model organism for biological and comparative genomics studies. Many miRNAs have been reported for their important roles in developmental processes in various animals, but there is limited information about O. aries miRNAs. In this study, combining a computational method based on expressed sequence tag (EST) analysis with experimental identification based on small RNA cDNA library, we identified 31 miRNAs belong to 24 families in sheep, 2 of which were novel miRNAs which had never been previously identified in any species. Especially, we cloned 12 miRNAs from the sheep skeletal muscle, which were good candidate miRNAs to be studied about the miRNA-dependant regulated process of muscle development, and we identified four pairs of miRNA/miRNA* and one pair of miRNA-3p/miRNA-5p from sheep EST sequences. Expression analysis indicated that some miRNAs were expressed in a specific tissue, and the pair of miRNA-3p/miRNA-5p and one pair of miRNA/miRNA* had a similar relative expression pattern in some tissues, respectively. Further, we predicted 120 potential target genes of 31 oar-miRNAs on the 3'UTR of O. aries genes. Gene ontology analysis showed that most of these genes took part in the cellular process and metabolic process. Our results enriched the O. aries miRNA database and provided useful information for investigating biological functions of miRNAs and miRNA* in sheep.
