The normal gene databases just contain the Ensembl gene identifiers, but not the transcripts, right?
Is there already a database available that also has the transcripts?

Best,

No. We tried adding transcripts and exons as one point and the dbs exploded in size, making them unmanageable for use in WikiPathways.  I could produce separate versions with transcripts for projects/usage outside of WP. I’d like to do this for just 1 or 2 species based on need. Or, the transcript to gene mappings could always be added as a separate table with transitivity through BridgeDb.
