1 A collection of tools for converting genome annotation between GTF (Gene Transfer Format), BED (Browser Extensible Data) and GFF (Generic Feature Format)
2
3 INTRODUCTION
4
5 Several genome annotation centers provide their data in GTF, BED, GFF3 etc. I have few programs
6 they mainly deals with converting between GTF, BED and GFF3 formats. They are extensively tested
7 with files from different centers like ENSEMBL, UCSC, JGI and NCBI AceView. Please follow the
8 instructions below to clone these tools into your galaxy instance.

10 CONTENTS
11
12 galaxy: Contains tool configuration files in *.xml format.
13
14 Tool configuration files. Please add right path to locate the scripts.
15
16 gtf_to_gff3.xml
17
18 gff3_to_gtf.xml
19
20 bed_to_gff3.xml
21
22 gff3_to_bed.xml
23
24 t: Test data set. (move to your galaxy root folder/test-data/)
25
26 You may need to move the test files into your test-data directory so galaxy can find them.
27 If you want to run the functional tests eg as:
28
29 sh run_functional_tests.sh -id fml_gtf2gff3
30
31 scripts: Python based and Perl based scripts.
32
33 gtf_to_gff3_converter.py: This tool converts data from GTF format to valid GFF3 format.
34
35 gff3_to_gtf_converter.pl: This tool converts data from GFF3 format to GTF format.
36
37 bed_to_gff3_converter.py: This tool converts data from a 12 column UCSC wiggle BED format to GFF3 format.
38
39 gff3_to_bed_converter.py: This tool converts gene transcript annotation from GFF3 format to UCSC wiggle 12 column BED format.

41 REQUIREMENTS
42
43 Python, Perl and if you are interested to use gff3_to_gtf_converter.pl please install Bio::Perl module.
