Annotation of 7 unclassified ncRNA candidates

Peter F Stadler   (2010-02-19 11:48)  University of Leipzig email

Seven of the eight "unclassified ncRNA candidates" can be readily annotated as homologs of well-known ncRNAs. Numbering the eight sequences in the order of appearance at the end of the article's Supplementary File 1, we have:

unc-1 = mitochondrial tRNA-Met (partial)
unc-3 = mitochondrial tRNA-Thr (partial)
unc-4 = mitochondrial tRNA-Lys
unc-5 = mitochondrial tRNA-Trp (+short 5' extension)
unc-2 = selenocysteine tRNA (tRNA-SeC)
unc-6 = SNORA31 paralog (box H/ACA snoRNA)
unc-8 = SNORA79 (box H/ACA snoRNA)

A short Technical Report detailing the evidence for these annotations can be found at
