MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, highly conserved, non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression of target mRNAs through cleavage or translational inhibition. Computer-based approaches for miRNA gene identification are being considered as indispensable in miRNAs research. Similarly, experimental approaches for detection of miRNAs are crucial to the testing and validating of computational algorithms. The detection of miRNAs in tissues or cells can supply valuable information for investigating the biological function of these molecules. Selective and highly sensitive detection methods will pave the way for extended understanding of miRNA function within organisms. In this review, we summarize the various computational methods for identification of miRNAs as well as the methodologies that have been developed to detection miRNAs.
