This issue is to track databases which could be good to import. We should review this issue each release to pick new databases. Additionally, whenever and interesting database is found it should be put into this list.
Once a database is chosen issues for that particular database for importing and how to best display the data should be created.
[ ] RMDB: https://rmdb.stanford.edu/tools/ (https://github.com/RNAcentral/rnacentral-webcode/issues/138)
In order to establish links with RMDB, we need to specify how a canonical sequence in RNAcentral ‘maps on’ to the sequence in RMDB. So far we haven't done any imports based on sequence mapping, but we will implement this approach for importing Rfam predictions. Once this is done, we can use the same procedure for RMDB.
[ ] r-bind
A database of molecules to bind to RNA, other than the ribosome. This could be very useful if we move toward more pharma work. Importing it might be adding annotations to specific sequences or maybe into Rfam families. https://rbind.chem.duke.edu/
[ ] Complex portal (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/complexportal/home) - Some ncRNAs are in complexes, so we should be able to cross link to them. They actually use our ids to annotate ncRNA so it should be simple. They also have some nice widgets could be useful to link to.
[ ] GWAS Catalog (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/) - We could map their hits to our sequences both for display in the genome browser and the sequence feature viewer
