Additionally, if targets are selected by both tools in at least two strains of SARS-CoV-2, we only considered them as potential targets of miRNA on SARS-CoV-2 (Table S2). In Table 1, we present the list of miRNAs meeting all these criteria.
We identified 1,018 miRNAs to target SARS-CoV-2 genes, among which 98 miRNAs are predicted to target SARS-CoV-2 genes uniquely when compared with other viruses studied here (Supplementary Table S6).
