yes, the alignment looks very good using IGV- I think, there is an issue in the GFF file as genes do not appear annotated using IGV (only the sequence appear without gene annotation), do not know how to fix the gff file?

**GenoMax** · 12-04-2013, 04:14 AM

Can you post an example of the GFF file (first few lines would be fine)?

**GenoMax** · 12-04-2013, 04:34 AM

Can you remove the fist line from the file (please make a backup copy of original file in case something goes wrong)

Code:

>complete genome

and then try? That would make it a gff format file (http://www.sanger.ac.uk/resources/so.../gff/spec.html).

To make it a gff3 format file you will have to replace that first line with following two lines http://www.sequenceontology.org/gff3.shtml

Code:

##gff-version 3 
##sequence-region NC_022544.1 1 4814801

**mmmm** · 12-04-2013, 05:08 AM

after editing the first 2 lines in the gff file as you have kindly suggested. genes annotations can not be seen on IGV (can see only the sequence but not the genes)???- your advice is very appreciated

**GenoMax** · 12-04-2013, 05:26 AM

Have you renamed the GFF file as "your_file_name.gff3"?

IGV expects the GFF3 files to have that extension (http://www.broadinstitute.org/software/igv/GFF) and they also need to be tab-delimited (which your example above does not appear to be).

**GenoMax** · 12-04-2013, 06:28 AM

After taking out the first two lines from your example, adding the two lines for GFF3 meta-data and then converting to tab-delimited text the file appears to work with IGV.

Take these two lines out:

Code:

>complete genome
NC_022544.1 RefSeq region 1 4814801 . + . ID=id0;Dbxref=taxon:568709;Is_circular=true;gbkey=Src;genome=genomic;mol_type=genomic DNA;serovar=Typhimurium;strain=DT2;sub-species=enterica

Replace with:

Code:

##gff-version 3 
##sequence-region NC_022544.1 1 4814801

**mmmm** · 12-05-2013, 02:11 AM

how do you convert text (gff3) to tab-delimited, please?
I used:

awk '{ for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){if(i==NF){printf("%s\n",$NF);}else {printf("%s\t",$i)}}}' file.gff3

but did not convert the file to tab-delimited????

Try this unix command. Adjust the file names accordingly.

Code:

$ tr ' ' \\t < original.gff3 > tab_converted.gff3

There is a "space" between the two single quotes in the command above.

Best to put the two top metadata lines in after the conversion.

**mmmm** · 12-05-2013, 05:35 AM

thanks you soo much for your advice and time. managed to view genes on IGV and have got a coverage.txt file showing genes that are covered/ missed from the reference

but have a very simple technichal issue when I open the coverage.txt using excel or libreoffice- I could not sort the coverage values in ascending order as values are written on a separte line

Something like the following will put each record on a single line.

Code:

cat coverage.txt | awk 'BEGIN{first=1; OFS='\t'; ORS='\t';}{if(first==1) {print $0; first=0;} else {print "\t",$0,"\n"; first=1}}' > coverage.single_line.txt

**mmmm** · 12-05-2013, 06:04 AM

I am afraid, that did not work

**GenoMax** · 12-05-2013, 06:21 AM

Devon's solution works for me. What is happening in your case?

Wonder if this is a unix vs PC/Mac file format issue. Are you moving the file among machines before running the script? I pasted your original sample into a new file on unix and did not have any problem.
