Distributions of miRNA classification scores. Blue indicates scores of 322 known RFAM miRNAs (negative control: diffuse hairpins). Red indicates scores of a set of 1000 randomly selected nonconserved hairpins (ΔG <−20 kcal/mol) from the human genome (negative control: diffuse hairpins). Purple indicates scores of 322 known RFAM miRNAs (negative control: 1000 hairpin structures above).
