Rfam Get Sequence Regions

Get list of all genomic regions containing RNA family members. Returns tab-delimited data with sequence IDs, coordinates, scores, and species. Shows where family is found across genomes. Warning: Some large families return 403 error due to too many regions. Use for: genome annotation, identifying RNA locations, cross-species comparisons, coverage analysis. Available formats: text (tab-delimited), json, xml.
