This feature of piRNAdb have the major objective to make easier to access the piRNA information. It provides the automatic translation of different piRNA alias from other databases to the code that we use on piRNAdb and provide the redirection to the piRNA information page.
In this section we provide all access alias for this piRNA in other databases. It is usual that databases store the same sequences of RNAs, but using different accession codes and identification. The association of a piRNA on our database and on another database is made by the comparison of the base sequence. Now, we have alias for piRNAs stored on the following databases: NCBI, ENA, piRNABank, piRBase, piRNAQuest and RNAdb.
This feature allow the user and researcher to visualize the predited targets by this piRNA in a objective way, it displays the genes based on the amount of complementary sites to the piRNA sequence following specific and updated rules.
To get more information about rules, cut-off and data source, access the specific page "FAQ/Help", item: piRNA Target Selection Criteria
Genes with a bigger font size and more vivid orange color have a higher amount of overlapping alignments, and a smaller font size and grey tone color is associated with a few amount of overlapping alignments.
We develop this feature to associate gene ontology terms found in databases and literature to predicted target genes to this piRNA. It contain information about the gene ontology term title and amount of genes that is related to one determined term.
Place the cursor over the term if it appear truncated.
Do you believe this is a real piRNA?
More important than just use the information provided, here the piRNA enthuast user and the researcher are able to provide their opinion about this specific piRNA. Is provided a form to write your comments and a simplified pool. This feature was developed to increase the connection and integration of different or equal opinions about this specific piRNA.
In this section we provide information related to the dataset where this piRNA was found. If there is more than on item available, it means that this piRNA was found in more than one project. It is important to cite and give credits to all the authors that have found this RNA sequence.
