I wanted to try tophat 1.1 with a UCSC supplied GTF file, but the binary (linux-x86_64) I downloaded keeps asking for a GFF file. Has anyone had success running this version with a GTF file?

where can I get reliable GTF annotation files?
I'm trying to get the GTF files for hg18, preferably at isoform level, from UCSC browser portal, in order to run with Tophat and cufflinks, but apparently I can't find such files there.
So far I've managed to download a table from here http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables?command=start but I'm not quite sure if it's the right way to do it. How did you guys get the file?
thanks

yes that what I did, but the problem is that there are loads of options for group/track/table and I don't find any single combination to look significantly more appealing. I'm looking for a detailed annotation for hg18, currently I have taken, the GTF file with:
Group: Genes and Gene prediction Tracks
Track: RefSeq Genes
Table: refGene
but I dunno how sensible/standard choice it is! and I guess it does not contain isoform level annotation.

So you can supply TopHat with a GTF file of annotated transcripts, which, using the --GTF option, will be the first place where reads are mapped, followed by the whole genome, with or without novel junction discovery in this second stage. As I understand it, this is after TopHat 1.4.
I'm curious to know how t was before 1.4. I think you could already give TopHat a GTF file, but it used it second. Am I right? If so, what is the difference between using it [the GTF file] first and using it second after the genome?

The complexity of cancer is clearly demonstrated in the diverse ecosystem of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME is made up of numerous cell types and its development begins with the changes that happen during oncogenesis. “Genomic mutations, copy number changes, epigenetic alterations, and alternative gene expression occur to varying degrees within the affected tumor cells,” explained Andrea O’Hara, Ph.D., Strategic Technical Specialist at Azenta. “As...-
