 ### RNA gene coordinate changes
 
+The table below contains all changes to sequence coordinates in RNA genes. Each pair of rows corresponds to a change, with columns corresponding to:
+
+* **Date:** date of the change.
+* **Systematic id:** systematic id of the gene affected.
+* **Primary name:** primary name of the gene affected, if it exists.
+* **Before / after change:** if the value is `before`, the value of `Coordinates` corresponds to coordinates of the CDS before the change. If the value is `after`, the value of `Coordinates` corresponds to coordinates of the CDS after the change.
+* **Coordinates:** see above.
+* **Comment:** a comment by PomBase curators might be associated with a change.
+* **Reference:** a reference (e.g. a PubMed ID) might be associated with a change.
+
+For a list of all changes in the genome (including protein coding genes) in a similar format see:
