Hi Karen,

I don’t of a unified tool that predicts lncRNAs from genomic sequence. I found a tool that predicts lncRNAs from RNAseq dataset, which you might be able to use for your project. I’ve never used it, but it might be a starting place. http://bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1471-2105-15-311

Here’s also a review that describes several workflows for annotating lncRNAs in insect genomes: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214574515000061

Hope that helps,
Daniel

Hi Carlson,

Regarding non-coding RNA predictions, MAKER only predicts tRNAs and rRNAs, but not other RNAs, for example, lncRNAs?

Thanks again.

Best Regards
Karen

Can maker2 be run without inputting any protein sequences?
Yes. But it will not perform as well.
How to turn this off in the control files?
Any option left blank is off.
Also, can i run maker using Augustus and not SNAP? Again, how do i turn SNAP off?
Yes. Leave it blank.
Does maker also predict non-coding genes?
You can run it with tRNAscan or snoscan. Snoscan requires you to have
rRNAs from your organism to train with though.
