Ebbie-MM 4.3 – Analyze Single Mismatches of Small RNAs to the genome

Ebbie-MM 4.3

:: DESCRIPTION

Ebbie-MM (Ebbie-(mis)match) is a software that analyzes single mismatches of small RNAs to the genome of origin. Using Ebbie-MM, we analyzed a dataset of 7,790 non-redundant small RNAs cloned from Oryza sativa. In this limited dataset, we found 230 1-nt-mismatches of which only 19 % overlapped to themselves. Even with this very limited dataset of 43 overlapping 1-nt-mismatches, RNA base modifications were detectable in small RNAs. Thus, not all sequencing errors should be discarded as they could contain valuable information on RNA base modifications.
