LncRNA–miRNA databases

Database	URL	Contents	References
DIANA-LncBase v2	http://www.microrna.gr/LncBase	Database provides two different miRNA–lncRNA interaction modules. One module is experimentally supported, and the other is in silico predicted interactions Database is supported by low-yield experimental techniques, analysis of more than 150 CLIP-Seq libraries, and publications	[57, 58]
LNCediting	http://bioinfo.life.hust.edu.cn/LNCediting/	Database provides information about RNA editing in lncRNAs. To predict the functional changes after RNA editing, it shows changes in the secondary structure and miRNA–lncRNA interactions	[59]
NPInter v3.0	http://www.bioinfo.org/NPInter/	Database provides information about interactions between ncRNAs (except tRNAs and rRNAs), lncRNAs and others. It offers various types of basic information about the interaction Database is supported by in silico predictions from AGO CLIP-Seq, 991 publications, and high-throughput technologies	[60–62]
lncReg	http://bioinformatics.ustc.edu.cn/lncreg/	Database is derived from miRNA–lncRNA interaction information in 259 research articles Database provides basic information about lncRNA, genes, relationships, mechanisms from 1,081 entries, and lncRNA-related regulatory networks	[63]
LNCipedia v4.0	http://www.lncipedia.org	Database has comprehensive human lncRNA information which contains RNA sequence, structure, local conservation, and transcript information Database also offers information about possible miRNA–lncRNA interactions. This prediction analysis is supported using the Mir Target2 algorithm	[63, 65]
lncRNASNP	http://bioinfo.life.hust.edu.cn/lncRNASNP/	Prediction of effects on SNPs in lncRNA secondary structure and lncRNA–miRNA interaction	[66]
starBase v2.0	http://starbase.sysu.edu.cn/	Database provides comprehensive interaction networks of ncRNAs (lncRNAs, miRNAs, and ceRNAs), mRNA, and RNA-binding proteins in normal tissues and cancer cells based on 108 CLIP-Seq	[68]
LncRNAMAP	http://lncRNAMap.mbc.nctu.edu.tw/	Database of putative regulatory functions of lncRNAs Database is supported by publicly available deep sequencing data	[69]
