We participate in a a new world-wide initiative for the large-scale annotation of small ORF translation events detected by ribosome profiling in the human genome. The initiative, led by researchers at Ensembl, Max Delbrück Center and Broad Institute, among others, provides a first list of 7,264 new translated ORFs, including many ORFs in long non-coding RNAs, as well as upstream ORFs (uORFs) in coding transcripts.
