In bioinformatics, lncRNAdb is a biological database of Long non-coding RNAs[1] [2] The database focuses on those RNAs which have been experimentally characterised with a biological function. The database currently holds over 290 lncRNAs from around 60 species. Example lncRNAs in the database are HOTAIR and Xist.[1]
