A transcription activator–like effector nuclease (TALEN)-mediated knockout approach to delete human microRNA (miRNA) genes was used to generate a library of 540 TALEN pairs for 274 miRNA loci. As a case study, single and double knockouts for two related miRNAs, miR-141 and miR-200c, revealed intriguing functional differences.
