Nucleotide sequences of tRNA genes encoded inTetrahymenamitochondrial DNA

Compilation of tRNA sequences and sequences of tRNA genes

Maintained at the Universitat Bayreuth, Bayreuth, Germany, the Compilation of tRNA Sequences and Sequences of tRNA Genes is accessible at the URL http://www.tRNA.uni-bayreuth.de with mirror site located at the Institute of Protein Research, Pushchino, Russia (http://alpha.protres.ru/trnadbase). The compilation is a searchable, periodically updated database of currently available tRNA sequences....

Identifying potential tRNA genes in genomic DNA sequences.

We have developed an algorithm that automatically and reproducibly identifies potential tRNA genes in genomic DNA sequences, and we present a general strategy for testing the sensitivity of such algorithms. This algorithm is useful for the flagging and characterization of long genomic sequences that have not been experimentally analyzed for identification of functional regions, and for the scan...

ARAGORN, a program to detect tRNA genes and tmRNA genes in nucleotide sequences.

A computer program, ARAGORN, identifies tRNA and tmRNA genes. The program employs heuristic algorithms to predict tRNA secondary structure, based on homology with recognized tRNA consensus sequences and ability to form a base-paired cloverleaf. tmRNA genes are identified using a modified version of the BRUCE program. ARAGORN achieves a detection sensitivity of 99% from a set of 1290 eubacterial...

tRNAdb 2009: compilation of tRNA sequences and tRNA genes

One of the first specialized collections of nucleic acid sequences in life sciences was the 'compilation of tRNA sequences and sequences of tRNA genes' (http://www.trna.uni-bayreuth.de). Here, an updated and completely restructured version of this compilation is presented (http://trnadb.bioinf.uni-leipzig.de). The new database, tRNAdb, is hosted and maintained in cooperation between the univers...
