tRNAscan-SE Module Documentation

tRNAscan-SE identifies 99-100% of transfer RNA genes in DNA sequence while giving less than one false positive per 15 gigabases. Lowe TM, Eddy SR: tRNAscan-SE: a program for improved detection of transfer RNA genes in genomic sequence. Nucleic Acids Res. 1997, 25(5):955-64. [PMID: 9023104]
