small non-coding RNA annotation database

[newtman]

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone can help me find a comprehensive annotation database for small non-coding RNAs. A database that includes not just miRNAs or piRNAs, but all of the identified small RNAs. I would really appreciate any inputs on this.

Thanks in advance

RNAcentral is probably your best bet. They source RNA sequences from a growing number of databases and will have most types of small RNAs.

Thanks a lot dpryan. This was very helpful.

Biomart is a good option too. You could select a database (Ensembl for example), and make a filtering by non-coding annotations (lnRNAs, miRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs, etc).

this is the link :

thanks diego, I already downloaded Gencode V21, which should cover Ensembl non-coding transcripts
