Hi Joseph,

In general, for any of the gene tracks, you can distinguish coding from
non-coding genes by using the Table Browser to filter the genesets on
the criteria that cdsStart=cdsEnd (in which case, there is no coding
sequence for that gene).  For our Ensembl Genes tracks, this is what 
determines whether we list "Ensembl Protein: none (non-coding)" on the 
details page.

For RefSeq, you can either look for cdsStart=cdsEnd, or you can look at 
the name of the transcript.  Those that start with "NR_" are noncoding:

I hope this is helpful.  Please feel free to contact us again at 
[email protected] if you have further questions.
