International Pacific Halibut Commission International Pacific Halibut Commission The International Pacific Halibut Commission (IPHC) is an International Fisheries Organization, having Canada and the United States as its members, responsible for the management of stocks of Pacific halibut or "Hippoglossus stenolepis" within the Pacific waters of its member states. It was founded in 1923 by an international treaty. The original treaty has been revised three times (1953,1976,1979). The 1979 amendment clarified the role of the IPHC in the management of the fishery through the North Pacific Halibut Act of 1982. It has carried out many activities including the use of chartered commercial fishing vessels to
IsomiR isomiRs have been detected deregulated in D. melanogaster development and differential expressed during "Hippoglossus hippoglossus" L. early development, suggesting a biologically relevant function. IsomiR isomiR is a term coined by Morin et al. to refer to those sequences that have variations with respect to the reference miRNA sequence. miRBase is considered to be the gold-standard miRNA database—it stores miRNA sequences detected by thousand of experiments. In this database each miRNA is associated with a miRNA precursor and with one or two mature miRNA (-5p and -3p). Similarly, VIRmiRNA is the only available resource for miRNA in the field of virus.
