Description

These tracks show non-coding RNAs from the Rfam database. These tracks were created from the Rfam 12.0 covariance models (CMs), using the cmsearch program from the Infernal package. Further information about the methods used to build Rfam families can be found on our web page.

Methods

The cmsearch program was used with the --rfam, --cut_ga and --nohmmonly command line options to calculate the positions of non-coding RNAs on each genome assembly. This reproduces the method used by Rfam curators when creating each family, including the use of expertly curated thresholds for each family.
