Human MIR483 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 11p15.5 and is approximately 80 bases in length. This allele, which encodes MIR483 pre-miRNA, may play a role in the negative regulation of mRNA translation. Alteration in the expression of this gene may be associated with development of non small lung cell carcinoma.
