How do I search for miRNA target seeds using command line mirtarbase?

Question

[Kash]

Hi everyone,

I have a bunch of nucleotide sequence fasta files which I want to search against Drosophila mirtarbase folder in the HPC. I would appreciate if someone can help me how to do this in the cluster. I am looking for miRNA seeds in the nucleotide sequences of interest.

Thank you in advance

If you want to search for potential miRNA targets, you should consider using tools for a such purpose, like TargetScan, DIANA tools, miRDB, etc.
