Does anyone know a way to extract the loop sequence from the miRNA hairpin. Basically I need to extract the part that is between the 3p- and 5p part of the hairpin.

Here is another suggestion using R/Bioconductor. Good luck!
Code:require(rtracklayer) require(BSgenome.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19) require(ShortRead) mirTrack = import('ftp://mirbase.org/pub/mirbase/20/genomes/hsa.gff3') # split into hairpin, 5arm and 3arm hp = mirTrack[mirTrack$type != "miRNA"] arm5 = mirTrack[grepl("-5p", mirTrack$Name)] arm3 = mirTrack[grepl("-3p", mirTrack$Name)] # make key for matching hairpin with arm5 and arm3 hp$arm5 = match(hp$ID, arm5$Derives_from) hp$arm3 = match(hp$ID, arm3$Derives_from) # discard hairpins lacking annotated 5p and 3p arms (loops not defined) hp = hp[!is.na(hp$arm3) & !is.na(hp$arm5)] # prepare hp$loopStart = 0 hp$loopEnd = 0 # miRNAs on pos and neg strand have to be parsed separately ## posStrand isPos = as.vector(strand(hp) =="+") hp$loopStart[isPos] = end(arm5[hp$arm5[isPos]]) hp$loopEnd[isPos] = start(arm3[hp$arm3[isPos]]) ## negStrand hp$loopEnd[!isPos] = start(arm5[hp$arm5[!isPos]]) hp$loopStart[!isPos] = end(arm3[hp$arm3[!isPos]]) # GRanges for miRNA loops loops = GRanges(seqnames = seqnames(hp), IRanges(hp$loopStart, hp$loopEnd),strand = strand(hp), MI = hp$ID, Name = hp$Name) # sanity check hist(width(loops)) # we don't want the first/last nt of bounding mature miRs loops = loops-1 loops$seq = getSeq(Hsapiens, loops) loops # export as fastaFile loopsFasta = loops$seq names(loopsFasta) = paste("loopSeq", loops$MI, loops$Name, sep = "_") writeFasta(loopsFasta, file = "mirbase20loops.fa")

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
