LncPlankton: a comprehensive database of candidate lncRNAs from marine microbial eukaryotes

Historically neglected or considered to be mere transcriptional noise, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are now emerging as central, regulatory molecules in a multitude of eukaryotic species, from animals to plants to fungi. Yet, our knowledge about the occurrence of these molecules in the marine environment is still elusive. To help fill this knowledge gap, we have developed LncPlankton, a comprehensive database of candidate marine lncRNAs. By integrating the predictions derived from 10...
