1/9 🧵 Excited to share our latest paper: GOFlowLLM - Curating miRNA literature with Large Language Models and flowcharts. Read the full paper here: doi.org/10.1093/bioinf… or highlights below!
All data freely available at rnacentral.org with API access, embeddable widgets, and full database dumps. Huge thanks to all @RNAcentral Consortium members for their contributions! Explore the new features and let us know what you think!
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.
🎉New RNAcentral paper published in Nucleic Acids Research! Discover automated literature integration, new expert databases, gene-level entries grouping related transcripts, and more: doi.org/10.1093/nar/gk…
We've just updated our RNAcentral Online Tutorial! ebi.ac.uk/training/onlin… This tutorial provides an overview of RNAcentral and covers different ways of accessing and using the data. It's aimed at anyone with an interest in non-coding RNAs. As always, we welcome your feedback!
As always, we welcome feedback! Please get in touch and help us make RNAcentral even better! rnacentral.org/contact
Read more in our blog post: blog.rnacentral.org/2025/10/rnacen… or our recent preprint: doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…
🎉 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. 🧵👇
🧬 We're hiring a Bioinformatician! Join our team advancing RNA research with cutting-edge genomic data. Ready to make an impact? Apply: embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/EMBL/job… #Bioinformatics #RNAresearch #JobAlert
Andrew will be presenting the RNAcentral & @RfamDB poster "Integrating the RNA Universe: Advances and Future Directions in RNAcentral and Rfam Resources" today at #ismbeccb2025! Come and say hi at board C-235 if you'd like to chat about our current status and future plans!
🚨 @emblebi is hiring a Project Leader to shape the future of RNA resources! Lead RNAcentral & Rfam, collaborate with global experts, and drive innovation in RNA biology. Apply now: embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/EMBL/job… 🚀 #RNA #Bioinformatics #Genomics #DataScience #LifeSciences #EMBL
12/12 Big thanks to our co-authors @AntonIPetrov, @nanoNancy, @Alexbateman1, @blake_a_sweeney and others! Read the full paper here: doi.org/10.1093/databa… #bioinformatics #LLM #AI
11/12 But overall, this shows that with careful prompting and checking, LLMs can help address the curation bottleneck in bioinformatics! 🎯
1/12 Excited to share our new paper in @OxfordJournals DATABASE on LitSumm - our system that uses large language models to automatically generate high-quality literature summaries for non-coding RNAs! 🧬📚
