**gffread   Filters and/or converts GFF3/GTF2 records**

The gffread command is documented with the stringtie_ package.

.. _stringtie: http://ccb.jhu.edu/software/stringtie/gff.shtml#gffread


gffread v0.11.4. Usage: ::

    gffread <input_gff> [-g <genomic_seqs_fasta> | <dir>][-s <seq_info.fsize>] 
     [-o <outfile>] [-t <trackname>] [-r [[<strand>]<chr>:]<start>..<end> [-R]]
     [-CTVNJMKQAFPGUBHZWTOLE] [-w <exons.fa>] [-x <cds.fa>] [-y <tr_cds.fa>]
     [-i <maxintron>] [--bed] [--table <attrlist>] [--sort-by <refseq_list.txt>]
     
     Filter, convert or cluster GFF/GTF/BED records, extract the sequence of
     transcripts (exon or CDS) and more.
     By default (i.e. without -O) only transcripts are processed, discarding any
     other non-transcript features. Default output is a simplified GFF3 with only
     the basic attributes.
     
     <input_gff> is a GFF file, use '-' for stdin
 
    Options:

     -i   discard transcripts having an intron larger than <maxintron>
     -l   discard transcripts shorter than <minlen> bases
     -r   only show transcripts overlapping coordinate range <start>..<end>
          (on chromosome/contig <chr>, strand <strand> if provided)
     -R   for -r option, discard all transcripts that are not fully 
          contained within the given range
     -U   discard single-exon transcripts
     -C   coding only: discard mRNAs that have no CDS features
     --nc non-coding only: discard mRNAs that have CDS features
     --ignore-locus : discard locus features and attributes found in the input
     -A   use the description field from <seq_info.fsize> and add it
          as the value for a 'descr' attribute to the GFF record
     -s   <seq_info.fsize> is a tab-delimited file providing this info
          for each of the mapped sequences:
          <seq-name> <seq-length> <seq-description>
          (useful for -A option with mRNA/EST/protein mappings)
      
     Sorting: (by default, chromosomes are kept in the order they were found)
     --sort-alpha : chromosomes (reference sequences) are sorted alphabetically
     --sort-by : sort the reference sequences by the order in which their
          names are given in the <refseq.lst> file
              
    Misc options: 
     -F   preserve all GFF attributes (for non-exon features)
     --keep-exon-attrs : for -F option, do not attempt to reduce redundant
          exon/CDS attributes
     -G   do not keep exon attributes, move them to the transcript feature
          (for GFF3 output)
     --keep-genes : in transcript-only mode (default), also preserve gene records
     --keep-comments: for GFF3 input/output, try to preserve comments
     -O   process other non-transcript GFF records (by default non-transcript
          records are ignored)
     -V   discard any mRNAs with CDS having in-frame stop codons (requires -g)

     --in-bed: input should be parsed as BED format (automatic if the input
               filename ends with .bed*)
     --in-tlf: input GFF-like one-line-per-transcript format without exon/CDS
               features (see --tlf option below); automatic if the input
               filename ends with .tlf)
               
    Clustering:
     -M/--merge : cluster the input transcripts into loci, discarding
          "duplicated" transcripts (those with the same exact introns
          and fully contained or equal boundaries)
     -d <dupinfo> : for -M option, write duplication info to file <dupinfo>
     --cluster-only: same as -M/--merge but without discarding any of the
          "duplicate" transcripts, only create "locus" features
     -K   for -M option: also discard as redundant the shorter, fully contained

     -Q   for -M option, no longer require boundary containment when assessing
          redundancy (can be combined with -K); only introns have to match for
          multi-exon transcripts, and >=80% overlap for single-exon transcripts
     -Y   for -M option, enforce -Q but also discard overlapping single-exon 
          transcripts, even on the opposite strand (can be combined with -K)
          
    Output options:
     --force-exons: make sure that the lowest level GFF features are considered
           "exon" features
     --gene2exon: for single-line genes not parenting any transcripts, add an
           exon feature spanning the entire gene (treat it as a transcript)

     -D    decode url encoded characters within attributes
     -Z    merge very close exons into a single exon (when intron size<4)
     -g   full path to a multi-fasta file with the genomic sequences
          for all input mappings, OR a directory with single-fasta files
          (one per genomic sequence, with file names matching sequence names)
     -w    write a fasta file with spliced exons for each GFF transcript
     -x    write a fasta file with spliced CDS for each GFF transcript
     -y    write a protein fasta file with the translation of CDS for each record
     -W    for -w and -x options, write in the FASTA defline the exon
           coordinates projected onto the spliced sequence;
           for -y option, write transcript attributes in the FASTA defline
     -S    for -y option, use '*' instead of '.' as stop codon translation
     -L    Ensembl GTF to GFF3 conversion (implies -F; should be used with -m)
     -m    <chr_replace> is a name mapping table for converting reference 
           sequence names, having this 2-column format:
           <original_ref_ID> <new_ref_ID>
           WARNING: all GFF records on reference sequences whose original IDs
           are not found in the 1st column of this table will be discarded!
     -t    use <trackname> in the 2nd column of each GFF/GTF output line
     -o    write the records into <outfile> instead of stdout
     -T    main output will be GTF instead of GFF3
     --bed output records in BED format instead of default GFF3
     --tlf output "transcript line format" which is like GFF
           but exons, CDS features and related data are stored as GFF 
           attributes in the transcript feature line, like this:
             exoncount=N;exons=<exons>;CDSphase=<N>;CDS=<CDScoords> 
           <exons> is a comma-delimited list of exon_start-exon_end coordinates;
           <CDScoords> is CDS_start:CDS_end coordinates or a list like <exons>
     --table output a simple tab delimited format instead of GFF, with columns
           having the values of GFF attributes given in <attrlist>; special
           pseudo-attributes (prefixed by @) are recognized:
           @chr, @start, @end, @strand, @numexons, @exons, @cds, @covlen, @cdslen
     -v,-E expose (warn about) duplicate transcript IDs and other potential
           problems with the given GFF/GTF records

**gffread   Filters and/or converts GFF3/GTF2 records**

The gffread command is documented with the stringtie_ package.

.. _stringtie: http://ccb.jhu.edu/software/stringtie/gff.shtml#gffread

gffread v0.12.7. Usage: ::

    gffread [-g <genomic_seqs_fasta> | <dir>] [-s <seq_info.fsize>] 
     [-o <outfile>] [-t <trackname>] [-r [<strand>]<chr>:<start>-<end> [-R]]
     [--jmatch <chr>:<start>-<end>] [--no-pseudo] 
     [-CTVNJMKQAFPGUBHZWTOLE] [-w <exons.fa>] [-x <cds.fa>] [-y <tr_cds.fa>]
     [-j ][--ids <IDs.lst> | --nids <IDs.lst>] [--attrs <attr-list>] [-i <maxintron>]
     [--stream] [--bed | --gtf | --tlf] [--table <attrlist>] [--sort-by <ref.lst>]
     [<input_gff>] 
    
     Filter, convert or cluster GFF/GTF/BED records, extract the sequence of
     transcripts (exon or CDS) and more.
     By default (i.e. without -O) only transcripts are processed, discarding any
     other non-transcript features. Default output is a simplified GFF3 with only
     the basic attributes.
     
    Options:
     --ids discard records/transcripts if their IDs are not listed in <IDs.lst>
     --nids discard records/transcripts if their IDs are listed in <IDs.lst>
     -i   discard transcripts having an intron larger than <maxintron>
     -l   discard transcripts shorter than <minlen> bases
     -r   only show transcripts overlapping coordinate range <start>..<end>
          (on chromosome/contig <chr>, strand <strand> if provided)
     -R   for -r option, discard all transcripts that are not fully 
          contained within the given range
     --jmatch only output transcripts matching the given junction
     -U   discard single-exon transcripts
     -C   coding only: discard mRNAs that have no CDS features
     --nc non-coding only: discard mRNAs that have CDS features
     --ignore-locus : discard locus features and attributes found in the input
     -A   use the description field from <seq_info.fsize> and add it
          as the value for a 'descr' attribute to the GFF record
     -s   <seq_info.fsize> is a tab-delimited file providing this info
          for each of the mapped sequences:
          <seq-name> <seq-length> <seq-description>
          (useful for -A option with mRNA/EST/protein mappings)
    Sorting: (by default, chromosomes are kept in the order they were found)
     --sort-alpha : chromosomes (reference sequences) are sorted alphabetically
     --sort-by : sort the reference sequences by the order in which their
          names are given in the <refseq.lst> file
    Misc options: 
     -F   keep all GFF attributes (for non-exon features)
     --keep-exon-attrs : for -F option, do not attempt to reduce redundant
          exon/CDS attributes
     -G   do not keep exon attributes, move them to the transcript feature
          (for GFF3 output)
     --attrs <attr-list> only output the GTF/GFF attributes listed in <attr-list>
        which is a comma delimited list of attribute names to
     --keep-genes : in transcript-only mode (default), also preserve gene records
     --keep-comments: for GFF3 input/output, try to preserve comments
     -O   process other non-transcript GFF records (by default non-transcript
          records are ignored)
     -V   discard any mRNAs with CDS having in-frame stop codons (requires -g)

     --in-bed: input should be parsed as BED format (automatic if the input
               filename ends with .bed*)
     --in-tlf: input GFF-like one-line-per-transcript format without exon/CDS
               features (see --tlf option below); automatic if the input
               filename ends with .tlf)
     --stream: fast processing of input GFF/BED transcripts as they are received
               ((no sorting, exons must be grouped by transcript in the input data)
    Clustering:
     -M/--merge : cluster the input transcripts into loci, discarding
          "redundant" transcripts (those with the same exact introns
          and fully contained or equal boundaries)
     -d <dupinfo> : for -M option, write duplication info to file <dupinfo>
     --cluster-only: same as -M/--merge but without discarding any of the
          "duplicate" transcripts, only create "locus" features
     -K   for -M option: also discard as redundant the shorter, fully contained

     -Q   for -M option, no longer require boundary containment when assessing
          redundancy (can be combined with -K); only introns have to match for
          multi-exon transcripts, and >=80% overlap for single-exon transcripts
     -Y   for -M option, enforce -Q but also discard overlapping single-exon 
          transcripts, even on the opposite strand (can be combined with -K)
    Output options:
     --force-exons: make sure that the lowest level GFF features are considered
           "exon" features
     --gene2exon: for single-line genes not parenting any transcripts, add an
           exon feature spanning the entire gene (treat it as a transcript)

     -D    decode url encoded characters within attributes
     -Z    merge very close exons into a single exon (when intron size<4)
     -g   full path to a multi-fasta file with the genomic sequences
          for all input mappings, OR a directory with single-fasta files
          (one per genomic sequence, with file names matching sequence names)
     -j    output the junctions and the corresponding transcripts
     -w    write a fasta file with spliced exons for each transcript
     --w-add <N> for the -w option, extract additional <N> bases
           both upstream and downstream of the transcript boundaries
     --w-nocds for -w, disable the output of CDS info in the FASTA file
     -x    write a fasta file with spliced CDS for each GFF transcript
     -y    write a protein fasta file with the translation of CDS for each record
     -W    for -w, -x and -y options, write in the FASTA defline all the exon
           coordinates projected onto the spliced sequence;
     -S    for -y option, use '*' instead of '.' as stop codon translation
     -L    Ensembl GTF to GFF3 conversion, adds version to IDs
     -m    <chr_replace> is a name mapping table for converting reference 
           sequence names, having this 2-column format:
           <original_ref_ID> <new_ref_ID>
     -t    use <trackname> in the 2nd column of each GFF/GTF output line
     -o    write the output records into <outfile> instead of stdout
     -T    main output will be GTF instead of GFF3
     --bed output records in BED format instead of default GFF3
     --tlf output "transcript line format" which is like GFF
           but with exons and CDS related features stored as GFF 
           attributes in the transcript feature line, like this:
             exoncount=N;exons=<exons>;CDSphase=<N>;CDS=<CDScoords> 
           <exons> is a comma-delimited list of exon_start-exon_end coordinates;
           <CDScoords> is CDS_start:CDS_end coordinates or a list like <exons>
     --table output a simple tab delimited format instead of GFF, with columns
           having the values of GFF attributes given in <attrlist>; special
           pseudo-attributes (prefixed by @) are recognized:
           @id, @geneid, @chr, @start, @end, @strand, @numexons, @exons, 
           @cds, @covlen, @cdslen
           If any of -w/-y/-x FASTA output files are enabled, the same fields
           (excluding @id) are appended to the definition line of corresponding
           FASTA records
     -v,-E expose (warn about) duplicate transcript IDs and other potential
           problems with the given GFF/GTF records
