Gene Symbol To Gene Type

Hi,

I have my sequencing data out and the analysis is been performed. Now that I have the gene symbols I want to know to what gene type(protein-coding,linc,sno,miRNA etc) it belongs to. I have tried using Biomart but it just lists the protein coding genes information. I tried using NCBI but it lists all the genes other than protein-coding as miscRNA.

Can anyone suggest is there any better way to extract that data

Thanks,

gene protein code small

Selecting the biotype in BioMart should output what you need - i think

hi Diya,

you can go to the Ucsc Genome Table Browser and then chose the genes you want to download.

In the option output format: choose "selected fields from primary and related tables" and then choose the attributes according to you need. These should include what you want.

Let us know if its unclear to you.
