Here's a simple question...I have a list of gene names that I want to retrieve a GTF file of those genes specifically. I put the list into UCSC for RefSeq genes and download the GTF file. The resulting GTF files does NOT contain the gene names, only the gene id's. So, how do I get a GTF file with the gene names???

Maybe what you want is the refFlat table from UCSC? Select Group: Gene and Gene prediction tracks; Track: RefSeq genes; Table: refFlat. Output format: GTF.Originally posted by golharam View Post
A sample output for the Actb gene in mouse looks like this:
The iGenomes also have GTF files http://cufflinks.cbcb.umd.edu/igenomes.html.Code:chr5 mm10_refFlat stop_codon 142903798 142903800 0.000000 - . gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat CDS 142903801 142903941 0.000000 - 0 gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat exon 142903116 142903941 0.000000 - . gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat CDS 142904067 142904248 0.000000 - 2 gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat exon 142904067 142904248 0.000000 - . gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat CDS 142904344 142904782 0.000000 - 0 gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat exon 142904344 142904782 0.000000 - . gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat CDS 142905237 142905476 0.000000 - 0 gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat exon 142905237 142905476 0.000000 - . gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat CDS 142905564 142905686 0.000000 - 0 gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat start_codon 142905684 142905686 0.000000 - . gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat exon 142905564 142905692 0.000000 - . gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb"; chr5 mm10_refFlat exon 142906652 142906724 0.000000 - . gene_id "Actb"; transcript_id "Actb";
Hope this helps!

During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

The first FDA-approved CRISPR-based therapy marked the transition of therapeutic gene editing from a dream to reality1. CRISPR technologies have streamlined gene editing, and CRISPR screens have become an important approach for identifying genes involved in disease processes2. This technique introduces targeted mutations across numerous genes, enabling large-scale identification of gene functions, interactions, and pathways3. Identifying the full range...08-27-2024, 04:44 AM
