Most metazoan microRNA target sites have perfect pairing to the seed region, located near the miRNA 5’ end. Although pairing to the 3’ region sometimes supplements seed matches or compensates for mismatches, pairing to the central region has been known to function only at rare sites that impart Agronaute-catalyzed mRNA cleavage. Here we present “centered sites,” a class of microRNA target sites that lacks both perfect seed pairing and 3’-compensatory pairing and instead has 11–12 contiguous Watson–Crick pairs to the center of the microRNA. Although centered sites can impart mRNA cleavage in vitro (in elevated Mg2+), in cells they repress protein output without consequential Agronaute-catalyzed cleavage. Our study also identified extensively paired sites that are cleavage substrates in cultured cells and human brain. This expanded repertoire of cleavage targets and the identification of the centered site type help explain why central regions of many microRNAs are evolutionarily conserved.
