[ensembl-dev] Why are ncRNA separate from cDNA?

[Charles Joseph Murphy]

To be more specific, why are these two files separate? Why not just have one FASTA file? I’ am asking this question because I’ am working with another individual on a python package for downloading/managing Ensembl data (https://github.com/hammerlab/pyensembl)

Hi,

Just out of curiosity, why are the cDNA and ncRNA sequences in separate FASTA files? Is this due to each set of transcripts being produced via different computational pipelines?
