Synonyms
miRNA gene transcription, microRNA gene transcription, pri-miRNA transcription by RNA polymerase II, pri-miRNA transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter, primary miRNA gene transcription
Alternate IDs

Definition
The cellular synthesis of microRNA (miRNA) transcripts. MicroRNA genes are synthesized as primary (pri) miRNA transcripts and subsequently processed to produce the ~22nt miRNAs that function in gene regulation. Source: GOC:dph, GOC:kmv, PMID:18778799
