How to map ENSEMBL Transcript IDs to coding/non-coding/miRNA

Question

[SunRise2019]

I have microarray gene expression data obtained from Affymetrix HTA 2.0. Using the annotation file, I was able to map the transcript clusters IDs (e.g. TC21000363.hg) to ENSEMBL Transcript IDs (e.g. ENST00000399889).

Now, I would like to know, whether the ENSEMBL Transcript IDs represent: - coding mRNA - non-coding RNA - miRNA

I have tried Biomart for this, but with no success, because Biomart does not allow for this kind of classification.

Would appreciate any help!

Biomart does not allow for this kind of classification.

I think it does.
