Hi Andre, Thanks for your great contribution to the Bambu pipeline. I am running it to identify novel transcripts from long-read sequencing data.

However, I found multiple entries with the same exon_number for a given transcript_id in the gtf output.

This is one of them. How should I understand the output?

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Best, Kenan

Hi Kenan,

Sorry for the late response. The exon number is the the index of the exon within that particular transcript from 1 to n (n is the number of exons). There would be a problem is the same transcript id had multiple of the same exon number but I cannot seem to see that in the example unless I have overlooked it.

Let me know if this has cleared it up, or if I misunderstood the issue.

Kind Regards, Andre Sim
