1 A collection of tools for converting genome annotation between GTF (Gene Transfer Format),
2 BED (Browser Extensible Data) and GFF (Generic Feature Format).

4 INTRODUCTION
5
6 Several genome annotation centers provide their data in GTF, BED, GFF3 etc. I have few programs
7 they mainly deals with converting between GTF, BED and GFF3 formats. They are extensively tested
8 with files from different centers like ENSEMBL, UCSC, JGI and NCBI AceView. Please follow the
9 instructions below to clone these tools into your galaxy instance.

23 gtf_to_gff.py: convert data from GTF to valid GFF3.
24 gff_to_gtf.py: convert data from GFF3 to GTF.
25 bed_to_gff.py: convert data from a 12 column UCSC wiggle BED format to GFF3.
26 gff_to_bed.py: convert gene transcript annotation from GFF3 to UCSC wiggle 12 column BED format.
27 gbk_to_gff.py: convert data from genbank format to GFF.
28 GFFParser.py: Parse GFF/GTF files.
29 helper.py: Utility functions.

31 test-data: Test data set. (move to your galaxy_root_folder/test-data/)
32
33 You may need to move the test files into your test-data directory so galaxy can find them.
34 If you want to run the functional tests eg as:
35
36 exmaple:
37 sh run_functional_tests.sh -id fml_gtf2gff
