Major structural change: RNAcentral now groups related transcripts into gene-level entries! Using ML graph clustering, we built 103,814 human ncRNA genes from 600,225 transcripts. Better reflects biology and enables comparative analyses.

🎉 RNAcentral Release 26 is here! This release introduces a significant structural change: gene-level entries for ncRNAs across 204 organisms.
For the first time, you can explore RNA data at the gene level, not just individual sequences. 🧵👇
