Hi Jennifer,

Does that mean these genes are "non-'protein'-coding" but potentially still 
contain exons (e.g. uc001aaa.3)? 
Are these computationally predicted exons or are they based on human RNA's and 
spliced EST data in GenBank?

Thanks,

Hk

Hello Hk,

The transcripts having knownGene.cdsStart == knownGene.cdsEnd are non-coding.

This will be the method to detect non-coding genes for many of the tracks in 
the Gene and Gene Predictions track group (example: RefSeq Genes, 
"refGene.cdsStart == knownGene.cdsEnd" are non-coding).

We hope this is helpful. Please contact the list again if you would like more 
help.

Thank you,
Jen
