RNAdb x97- a comprehensive mammalian noncoding RNA database
What you can do:
Search for information on experimentally studied mammalian non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including many associated with diseases and/or developmental processes.
Highlights:
- RNA database (RNAdb) which contains over 800 unique experimentally studied non-coding RNAs, including microRNAs and snoRNAs, but not infrastructural RNAs, such as rRNAs and tRNAs.
- The database also includes over 1100 putative antisense ncRNAs and almost 20000 putative ncRNAs identified in high-quality murine and human cDNA libraries.
- 2007 update:
- Added nucleotide sequences and annotations for tens of thousands of non-housekeeping ncRNAs, including a wide range of mammalian microRNAs, small nucleolar RNAs and larger mRNA-like ncRNAs.
- Some of these have documented functions and/or expression patterns, but the majority remain of unclear significance, and include PIWI-interacting RNAs, ncRNAs identified from the latest rounds of large-scale cDNA sequencing projects, putative antisense transcripts, as well as ncRNAs predicted on the basis of structural features and alignments.
