RSEM-GFF3-TO-GTF(1)

💖 NAME 💖

rsem-gff3-to-gtf — bestie, this is the little tool that takes your GFF3 files and turns them into GTF files. Glow-up complete. ✨

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so, the vibe is:

usage: rsem-gff3-to-gtf [-h] [--make-genes-as-transcripts]
       [--RNA-patterns <patterns>]
       [--extract-sequences <output.fa>] input_GFF3_file output_GTF_file

Convert GFF3 files to GTF files. That's it, that's the whole mission statement, and she ate. 💅

🎀 positional arguments 🎀

• input_GFF3_file — the GFF3 file you're feeding in. Your source material, your raw material, the file you're obsessed with. 🙈
• output_GTF_file — where the shiny new GTF lands. Your glow-up, written to disk. ✨

🦋 options 🦋

• -h, --help — shows you this help message and then bounces. No notes, iconic behaviour. 💁
• --make-genes-as-transcripts — for when your GFF3 file is out here with no transcripts at all (the audacity 😭) — this makes each gene count as a transcript. Default: False. 🍓
• --RNA-patterns <patterns> — tells it which types of RNAs to extract, like mRNA,rRNA. Default: None. 🌈
• --extract-sequences <output.fa> — if your GFF3 file has reference sequences hiding inside it, this pulls them out into the file you name. Default: None. 🧚

🫶 reminder that the defaults are the defaults: leave a flag off and it stays False / None. Don't come for me, come for the defaults. 💀
