MicroRNA genes and their target 3'-untranslated regions are infrequently somatically mutated in ovarian cancers.

MicroRNAs are key regulators of gene expression and have been shown to have altered expression in a variety of cancer types, including epithelial ovarian cancer. MiRNA function is most often achieved through binding to the 3'-untranslated region of the target protein coding gene. Mutation scree...
