The sequences of 117 rhesus monkey ncRNAs. In this file, the nucleotide sequences of 117 monkey ncRNAs are provided. The C/C' boxes, D/D' boxes, and guide sequences of C/D box snoRNAs, are highlighted. The sequences of all ncRNAs obtained in this study have been submitted to GenBank (Accession numbers: FJ915946-FJ916062).

Target prediction of H/ACA box snoRNAs. The guide sequences of H/ACA box snoRNAs were identified within the internal loop(s) of one (or both) hairpin structures. "p5" refers to guide sequences located in the 5'-end hairpin structures of snoRNA; "p3" refers to those in the 3'-end hairpins. The two nucleotides at the junction sites between the stem and the loop in guide sequences are shown in lower case. The predicted pseudouridine sites are denoted by lower case "u".

The expression patterns of rhesus monkey ncRNAs. The expression pattern of each ncRNA was examined by northern blotting using total RNA from rhesus monkey spleen, brain, kidney, liver, heart, and skeletal muscle. Samples of total RNA from human, mouse, and chicken skeletal muscle were included in each blot to test the possible expression of ncRNAs in different species. Based on the cumulative northern blotting data, expression patterns in different species can be classified into six types. All northern blot data are shown in this file.

Sequence alignments of five rhesus monkey snoRNAs in nine primate species. Multiple alignments of five snoRNAs in nine primate species are shown. The species analyzed were Homo sapiens (hg18), Pan troglodytes (panTro2), Gorilla gorilla (gorGor1), Pongo pygmaeus abelii (ponAbe2), Macaca mulatta (the rhesus monkey) (rheMac2), Callithrix jacchus (calJac1), Tarsius syrichta (tarSyr1), Microcebus murinus (micMur1), and Otolemur garnetti (otoGar1).

Copy numbers of 58 rhesus monkey snoRNA families in eight representative vertebrate genomes. The homologs of 58 rhesus monkey snoRNA families in seven other representative vertebrate genomes were analyzed based on the annotations of ENSEMBL Release 50. In each tested vertebrate genome, the copy numbers of intron-encoded and intergenic snoRNAs were separately calculated.
