Description

Small RNAs (sRNAs) constitute an important class of post-transcriptional regulators that control critical cellular processes in bacteria. While recent research has led to a dramatic increase in the discovery of bacterial sRNAs, it is generally believed that the currently identified sRNAs constitute a limited subset of the bacterial sRNA repertoire. In several cases, sRNAs belonging to a specific class are already known and the challenge is to identify additional sRNAs belonging to the same class. **InvenireSRNA** is an R package for learning a classification model for a given class of sRNA thus allowing for the discovery of additional sRNAs beloning to the same class. **InvenireSRNA** also provides a pretrained model for predicting RsmA/CsrA regulating sRNAs.
