Genome annotation is an important but challenging task. Accurate identification of short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) is particularly difficult due to their lack of highly conserved sequences. AnnoSINE is state-of-the-art software for annotating SINEs in plant genomes, but its homology-based module is not available for animals and it is computationally inefficient for large genomes. Therefore, we propose AnnoSINE_v2, which extends accurate SINE annotation for animal genomes with greatly optimized computational efficiency. Our results show that AnnoSINE_v2s annotation of SINEs has over 20% higher F1-score compared to the existing tools on animal genomes and enables the processing of complicated genomes, like human and zebrafish, which were beyond the capabilities of AnnoSINE_v1. AnnoSINE_v2 is freely available on Conda and GitHub: https://github.com/liaoherui/AnnoSINE_v2.
