Version 1.0.0 contains 4,706 observation-level records, 2,424 normalized sequence identities, and 114 literature and patent sources.
What are saRNAs?
Small activating RNAs (saRNAs) are short double-stranded RNAs that increase endogenous gene expression through RNA activation. They are being explored as research tools and potential therapeutics, including for targets that are difficult to address by conventional approaches. This database brings published saRNA sequences and their experimental context together to support analysis and more rational design.

About the resource
The database brings together structured information from the saRNA literature, making published sequence and experimental information easier to find, review, cite, and reuse. It accompanies the Molecules review Small Activating RNAs: A Curated Database and an Overview of Rational Design Principles. Read the methods, citation guidance, and project information.
