The eukaryotic transcriptome is composed of thousands coding and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). However, we lack a software platform to identify both RNA classes in given transcriptome. Here introduce Annocript, pipeline that combines the annotation protein transcripts with prediction putative lncRNAs whole transcriptomes. It downloads indexes needed databases, runs analysis produces human readable standard outputs together summary statistics analysis.Annocript distributed under GNU General Public License (version 3 or later) freely available at https://github.com/frankMusacchia/[e-mail].
