tncRNA Toolkit: A pipeline for convenient identification of RNA (tRNA)-derived non-coding RNAs.

ABSTRACT: Insights into the eukaryotic gene regulation networks have improved due to the advent of diverse classes of non-coding RNAs. The transfer RNA (tRNA)-derived non-coding RNAs or tncRNAs is a novel class of non-coding RNAs, shown to regulate gene expression at transcription and translation levels. Here, we present a pipeline 'tncRNA Toolkit' for accurately identifying tncRNAs using small RNA sequencing (sRNA-seq) data. Previously, we identified tncRNA in six major angiosperms by utilizing our pipeline and highlighted the significant points regarding their generation and functions. The 'tncRNA Toolkit' is available at the URL: http://www.nipgr.ac.in/tncRNA. The scripts are written in bash and Python3 programming languages. The program can be efficiently run as a standalone command-line tool an
