Blood flukes of the genus Schistosoma cause schistosomiasis-a neglected tropical disease (NTD) that affects more than 200 million people worldwide. Studies of schistosome genomes have improved our understanding of the molecular biology of flatworms, but most of them have focused largely on protein-coding genes. Small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) have been explored in selected schistosome species and are suggested to play essential roles in the post-transcriptional regulation of genes, and in modulating flatworm-host interactions. However, genome-wide small RNA data are currently lacking for key schistosomes including Schistosoma haematobium-the causative agent of urogenital schistosomiasis of humans.

View all literature mentionsThe Rfam database is a collection of RNA families, each represented by multiple sequence alignments, consensus secondary structures and covariance models (CMs). The families in Rfam break down into three broad functional classes: Non-coding RNA genes, structured cis-regulatory elements and self-splicing RNAs. Typically these functional RNAs often have a conserved secondary structure which may be better preserved than the RNA sequence. The CMs used to describe each family are a slightly more complicated relative of the profile hidden Markov models (HMMs) used by Pfam. CMs can simultaneously model RNA sequence and the structure in an elegant and accurate fashion. Rfam is also available via FTP. You can find data in Rfam in various ways... * Analyze your RNA sequence for Rfam matches * View Rfam family annotation and alignments * View Rfam clan details * Query Rfam by keywords * Fetch families or sequences by NCBI taxonomy * Enter any type of accession or ID to jump to the page for a Rfam family, sequence or genome
View all literature mentionsA 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.
View all literature mentionsCatalogs of predicted microRNA targets in worm (based on ce6 genome assembly), fly (dm3), mouse (mm9) and human (hg18). We follow standard seed parameter settings and consider seeds of length 6-8 bases, beginning at position 2 of the microRNA. No mismatches or loops are allowed, but a single G:U wobble is allowed in 7- or 8-mers. In genes missing a 3' UTR annotation, 500 bp (fly), 800 bp (human and mouse) or 300 bp (worm) downstream of the annotated end of the coding sequence were used as the predicted UTR. For each organism, a catalog with zero flank and with a flank of 3 and 15 bases upstream and downstream.

View all literature mentionsSoftware tool for transcriptome assembly and differential expression analysis for RNA-Seq. Includes script called cuffmerge that can be used to merge together several Cufflinks assemblies. It also handles running Cuffcompare as well as automatically filtering a number of transfrags that are likely to be artifacts. If the researcher has a reference GTF file, the researcher can provide it to the script to more effectively merge novel isoforms and maximize overall assembly quality.
View all literature mentionsThe main purpose of Cufflinks.cuffmerge is to merge together several Cufflinks assemblies, making it easier to produce an assembly GTF file suitable for use with Cufflinks.cuffdiff. Cufflinks.cuffmerge also runs Cuffcompare in the background and automatically filters out transcribed fragments (transfrags) that are likely to be artifacts.
