Abstract
Computational tools are indispensable in the genetic engineering today. This research employs computational analysis on microRNAs which are targeting at the PTEN gene. This study aims to analyze the implication of microRNAs in the expression of PTEN which is leading to tumorigenesis. The analysis of microRNAs sheds light on the regulatory mechanism of PTEN in cancer development.
