Extracted molecule
total RNA
Extraction protocol
Total RNA was isolated from fully grown oocytes with Trizol, then separated PAGE to obtain three size fractions (19-24/24-30/19-30 nt). Adapters for Solexa sequencing were ligated, then the ligated product amplified by RT-PCR. The PCR product is gel-purified for sequencing

Description
19-30 nt fraction
Data processing
The 3' linker, CTGTAGGCACCATCAAT, was identified and stripped out of the raw reads using a smith-waterman based alignment algorithm.
