Noncoding regulatory RNAs - RNAs that are not translated into protein - include the small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), the small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), the XIST RNA that mediates mammalian X-chromosome silencing, microRNAs, riboswitches, and the RNA component of the enzyme telomerase.

Candidates were categorized as "high confidence" if they passed all of the above criteria, and in addition formed a hairpin with predicted Drosha and Dicer cut sites that were able to yield a mature miRNA sequence matching the actual miRNA sequence read, as well as not mapping to known snoRNAs or snRNAs.

We identified 117 rhesus monkey ncRNAs, including 80 small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), 29 other types of known RNAs (snRNAs, Y RNA, and others), and eight unclassified ncRNAs.
-
Candidates were categorized as "potential" if they had weak predicted processing sites in the hairpin, yet the hairpin showed a stable 5′ end (candidates representing snoRNAs and snRNAs that otherwise fulfilled the "high confidence" criteria were also categorized as "potential").
