[maker-devel] maker2 scripts for functional annotation

Hi Carson,

Thank you for the message and your kind help. We tested maker2 by setting keep_preds=1, pred_gff=generated_gff_file_from_first_makerRun . But it seemed maker2 started to launch all predictors again and it took long time to finish. I wonder if there is any way that we can directly get gene/mRNA/exons/CDS gff file without re-running maker2 to convert match/match_part features into gene/mRNA/exons/CDS. 

Thanks,
Xia

Hello Corban & Xia,

Some scripts like gff3_preds2models are deprecated.  To get the same result as was offered by gff3_preds2models, just give your match/match_part features to pref_gff= in the maker_opts.ctl file, set keep_preds=1, and run with all other options and predictors turned off.
The final MAKER result will be your match/match_part features converted into gene/mRNA/exons/CDS.

For functional annotation, you can use Interproscan, BLASTP against UniProt, or BALST2GO.  My preference is to use InterProScan to add GO terms and proteins domains via the ipr_update_gff and iprscan2gff3 scripts.  Then add putative gene functions via BLASTP to UniProt and maker_functional_fasta and maker_functional_gff scripts.

Go ahead and take a look and that those tools and let me know if you have any questions or need help you configuring them.

Thanks,
Carson
