tRNA genes were predicted by tRNAscan developed by Fichant and Burks (Fichant and Burks, 1991).
rRNA genes were identified by homology search using FASTA and the 5S, 16S, and 23S rRNA gene sequences.
Prediction of other RNA species was not attempted, and instead, previously studied RNA species available in public databases were searched for and incorporated.
