Determine which HUGO IDs are coding and non-coding

Question

[jolespin]

I have a giant list of HUGO identifiers. Is there any tool in Python or some web-server (preferably python) that could tell me if it's coding or non-coding?

see http://www.genenames.org/cgi-bin/statistics

protein-coding ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/genenames/new/tsv/locus_groups/protein-coding_gene.txt

non-coding RNA : ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/genenames/new/tsv/locus_groups/non-coding_RNA.txt

You could use the HGNC REST service. For example:

http://rest.genenames.org/fetch/symbol/ZNF3

Then parse for locus_type = "gene with protein product".

They also have a BioMart service.
