  2. PROJECT AIMS • Based on original algorithms developed for the web based UEA sRNA Tools • Moxon et. al. (2008) • Easy to use • Designed to be used by biologists with limited access to bioinformatics support, perhaps on a desktop computer (but is extendable to servers or high performance clusters) • Cross platform support • To allow multiple analysis techniques from within a single program through the use of an MDI (Multiple Document Interface) • Performance improvements, Speed, Memory • Still accessible through the command line • Code maintainability 02

  3. WHAT WE ALREADY OFFER 03

  4. HELPER TOOLS • Adapter Removal • Removes 3’ and/or 5’ adaptors from raw high-throughput sequence data • FASTA or FASTQ • Provides sRNA length distribution • Filter • Filters sRNA sequences from high-throughput data according to user-defined criteria • Sequence Alignment • Aligns sRNA Sequences to a Reference Genome or other long read file DEFAULT STYLES 04

  5. ANALYSIS TOOLS 05

  6. miRCat • miRCat (micro RNA Categorisation) • Moxon et. al (2008) Stocks et. al. (2012) • Identify novel miRNAs in high-throughput sequence data • Identify known miRNAs found in miRBase in result set • Griffiths-Jones (2010) • View miRNA statistics • One click viewing of the predicted miRNA as they appear on the genome • One click viewing of miRNA pre-cursor secondary structure plot • Concurrency.... 06

  7. miRCat threading CPU Core sRNA sRNA sRNA CPU Core Thread Pool: FIFO data structure (Queue) First sequence added to the list (First In) is the first item processed (First Out) sRNA Database sRNA 07

  8. PERFORMANCE TEST 08

  9. TARGET PREDICTION • Part of a parallel BBSRC tools and resources project • A high-throughput technique known as Parallel Analysis of RNA Ends (PARE) is used to sequence mRNA cleavage products on a large-scale • Sequence 5' end of uncapped mRNA (Degradome) Including transcripts targeted by sRNAs and subjected to endonucleolytic cleavage • The sRNA and degradome data can be used to identify interactions between sRNAs and their target mRNA 09

  10. PARESnip • PAREsnip can be used to search for genome-wide interactions between all sRNAs and transcripts as well as predicting targets of small groups of miRNAs • PAREsnip outputs all potential sRNA target duplexes evidenced through the degradome • Features: • Categorisation system • Addo-Quaye et. al (2009) • Data structures based on m-way search trees and multi-threaded optimisation • ~90 mins to process 100k sequences of A. thaliana data • At least as sensitive to detecting targets as other tools designed for this type of analysis or better • Folkes et. al. (2012) NAR 10

  11. PARESnip • Each coloured rectangle represents an interaction • The taller the rectangle, the higher the abundance • Tool tips provide additional information • T-plots can also be generated • Target information is given on the right • Navigation controls allow the user to simply click through the plots or output them to PDF for publication 11

  12. OTHER TOOLS • miRProf (micro RNA Profiler) • Detect all known miRNAs found in miRBase within your dataset • Griffiths-Jones, (2010) • Determines normalised expression levels of known miRNA found in miRBase • Can be used to compare expression levels across multiple samples • TA-SI prediction (Trans Acting Small Interfering RNA prediction) • Predicts phased ta-siRNA in plant datasets • Chen et. al. (2007) • Requires sRNA database and genome database • View phased sRNAs as they appear on the genome • SiLoCo... • Multi sample general loci prediction • Expression profile DEFAULT STYLES 12
