Small RNA (sRNA) sequencing. (A) The rough distribution of sRNA types in a sequencing sample. The distribution varies based on sample type; (B) example read length histogram after trimming adaptor sequences. Generally, two peaks (at 22 nucleotides for miRNA and at 33 nucleotides for transfer RNA (tRNA)) can be observed; (C) mature tRNA figure. The commonly captured fragments of tRNAs, forming the peaks in the length histogram, are the green and yellow segments of the tRNA.
