+Pkg-Description: program for improved detection of transfer RNA genes in genomic sequence
+ tRNAscan-SE identifies 99-100% of transfer RNA genes in DNA sequence while
+ giving less than one false positive per 15 gigabases. Two previously described
+ tRNA detection programs are used as fast, first-pass prefilters to identify
+ candidate tRNAs, which are then analyzed by a highly selective tRNA covariance
+ model. This work represents a practical application of RNA covariance models,
+ which are general, probabilistic secondary structure profiles based on stochastic
+ context-free grammars. tRNAscan-SE searches at ~ 30 000 bp/s. Additional
+ extensions to tRNAscan-SE detect unusual tRNA homologues such as selenocysteine
+ tRNAs, tRNA-derived repetitive elements and tRNA pseudogenes.
