Conservation and divergence of small RNA pathways and microRNAs in land plants.

Genome biology | 2017

As key regulators of gene expression in eukaryotes, small RNAs have been characterized in many seed plants, and pathways for their biogenesis, degradation, and action have been defined in model angiosperms. However, both small RNAs themselves and small RNA pathways are not well characterized in other land plants such as lycophytes and ferns, preventing a comprehensive evolutionary perspective on small RNAs in land plants.

Pfam (tool)

RRID:SCR_004726

A database of protein families, each represented by multiple sequence alignments and hidden Markov models (HMMs). Users can analyze protein sequences for Pfam matches, view Pfam family annotation and alignments, see groups of related families, look at the domain organization of a protein sequence, find the domains on a PDB structure, and query Pfam by keywords. There are two components to Pfam: Pfam-A and Pfam-B. Pfam-A entries are high quality, manually curated families that may automatically generate a supplement using the ADDA database. These automatically generated entries are called Pfam-B. Although of lower quality, Pfam-B families can be useful for identifying functionally conserved regions when no Pfam-A entries are found. Pfam also generates higher-level groupings of related families, known as clans (collections of Pfam-A entries which are related by similarity of sequence, structure or profile-HMM).

ShortStack (tool)

RRID:SCR_010834

A software tool developed to process and analyze small RNA-seq data with respect to a reference genome, and output a comprehensive and informative annotation of all discovered small RNA genes. ShortStack discovers small RNA ''clusters'' de novo, based on user-set thresholds, and annotates clusters with respect to small RNA size, orientation, and repetitiveness. ShortStack also discovers and annotates MIRNA genes, and other Hairpin-associated small RNA genes. In addition, ShortStack includes a robust method to detect genes producing small RNAs in a phased manner. It outputs a descriptive table of all results, useful genome browser tracks, a table describing the results of the hairpin / MIRNA analysis for each cluster, and detailed text-based alignments of all MIRNAs and hairpin-associated clusters. It can also be run in ''count'' mode, to quantify a set of input loci with genomic coordinates determined a priori by the user. ShortStack is a perl program. Besides perl, ShortStack also requires samtools and the RNALfold and RNAeval programs from the Vienna RNA Package to execute. When used to control the alignment of small RNA data to a reference genome, ShortStack also requires bowtie and bowtie-build. Finally, for optimal results, ShortStack uses a file of inverted repeats produced by the EMBOSS application einverted.
