Figure 1

Saturation plot of microRNA libraries. Saturation plots were created from the neonatal muscle sample to determine saturation of the signal as an indicator that abundance levels would remain constant as new results were added. A total of 5,000 observed miR were evaluated. The supply of unique singletons is represented by the small dashed line, while the known and unknown miR are represented by the solid black line and large dashed line, respectively.
