Description 169-176
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are proteins that play
key role in the innate immune system. In the present study, ~1000 base pairs
upstream are taken from the transcription start site of the various TLR genes
(10 known) in human. About 40 microRNAs have been identified that share 12-19
nucleotide sequence similarity with the promoter regions of 10 TLRs. It is
proposed that the microRNA performs potential role in identification of
promoter sequence and initiation of transcription.
