Eukaryotic genome annotation steps

Hi,

I have some whole genome shot gun contigs. Now I want to annotate those contigs. So my question is what are exacty protocol to annotate a eukarotic genome. Should I clean the contigs by removing the non coding RNA sequences, transposable lemnets etc. and then go for gene prediction programs or I can directly go gene prediction programs

sequencing genome

I know this paper but they haven't mentioned aboout transposable element prediction or non coding RNA sequence removal. Is this not a necessary step?

Look at the section in the paper: STEP 1
