Fig. 1. Novel class of sRNAs antisense to 3’ ends annotations.
(A) Distribution of sRNA detected using tSMS using the no-amplification protocol and Illumina platforms2 on both strands of the genome within the FAU locus; (B) Distribution of distances between the 5’ ends of tSMS sequences obtained using the un-amplifed protocol and 3’ ends of annotations of the opposite strand. Base to the right of “0” represents the most 3’ base of an RNA, see Supplementary Information for additional explanation and details. (C) Schematic representation of a possible mode of generation of sRNAs antisense to 3’ UTRs and their detection using tSMS.
