AbstractMumps is a common childhood infection caused by the mumps virus (MuV). Aseptic meningitis and encephalitis are usual symptoms of mumps together with orchitis and oophoritis that can arise in males and females, respectively. We have used computational tools: RNA22, miRanda and psRNATarget to predict the microRNA-mRNA binding sites to find the putative microRNAs playing role in the host response to mumps virus infection.

1. IntroductionMushrooms are the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting bodies of specific species of the fungi kingdom, typically growing above ground on soil. The existence of fungi has been observed in all climatic zones, primarily on land, but also in water (fresh and salt). By 2020, approximately 148,000 species of mushrooms had been discovered, but the actual number is much higher. About 2000 new species are discovered every year. About 90% of fungi remain unknown.
