Hi all. I just downloaded gene structure annotations in GTF for hg19. I've noticed that the gene_id and transcript_id for each feature are the same. How does one know whether two transcript belong to the same gene (alternatively spliced isoforms)?
Thanks! PS I ask because I am trying to convert the data into GFF3 format. I assume that you have made a conscious choice not to share data in this format and that I have not missed it. I was able to find a few scripts (via Google) to do the GTF -> GFF3 conversion, but they all include a caveat about GTF from UCSC. So now I'm creating my own... -- Daniel S.
