SnoDB 2.0: an enhanced interactive database, specializing in human snoRNAs.

ABSTRACT: snoDB is an interactive database of human small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) that includes up-to-date information on snoRNA features, genomic location, conservation, host gene, snoRNA-RNA targets and snoRNA abundance and provides links to other resources. In the second edition of this database (snoDB 2.0), we added an entirely new section on ribosomal RNA (rRNA) chemical modifications guided by snoRNAs with easy navigation between the different rRNA versions used in the literature and experimentally measured levels of modification. We also included new layers of information, including snoRNA motifs, secondary structure prediction, snoRNA-protein interactions, copy annotations and low structure bias expression data in a wide panel of tissues and cell lines to bolster functional probing of snoRNA biology. Version 2.0 features updated identifiers, more links to external resources and duplicate entry resolution. As a result, snoDB 2.0, which is freely available at https://bioinfo-scottgroup.med.usherbrooke.ca/snoDB/, represents a one-stop shop for snoRNA features, rRNA modification targets, functional impact and potential regulators.
