A guide to RNA families
Date: 21 April 2021
Rfam is a database of RNA families that currently contains almost 4,000 families. Together with the Infernal software, Rfam is commonly used to annotate non-coding RNAs in newly sequenced genomes. In this webinar, we will give an overview of the data available in Rfam and give a live demo of annotating a genome with non-coding RNAs using Rfam and the Infernal software.
We will be joined by a guest speaker, Prof Sam Griffiths-Jones (University of Manchester), who founded Rfam in 2002 and is now responsible for miRBase, the microRNA registry. We will discuss the ongoing efforts to synchronise the microRNA families between Rfam and miRBase.
