A new page on our website has just been created -- 'Tools' -- which contains downloads of small pieces of software that may be of use in small RNA sequencing analysis (and perhaps in the future other applications as well). The first additions are a couple of simple tools for use in removing the 3' adapters from untrimmed Illumina-FASTQ small RNA sequencing files. Certainly not covering new ground here; there are several methods out there for this, and most labs have their own in-house methods. But, here is ours!
Since we've done a fair bit of small RNA sequencing using SOLiD, the next 'Tools' addition will likely be an adapter-trimming tool for SOLiD small RNA sequencing data. We have our own in-house program but it needs to be 'cleaned up' before being made available to the wider world .. - MJA
