Hi Lucas,
I am doing something similar. Did you find a solution?
Thanks. Xingbo
Hi Xingbo,
I actually did. I found the easiest way to transfer the annotation is by using gmap (https://github.com/juliangehring/GMAP-GSNAP). gmap aligns back your protein sequences to the pseudochromosome reference generated by Chromosembler and outputs a new gff file.
I hope that helps.

Some of the developers (orig. Satsuma) have released a tool that basically uses Satsuma synteny chains to lift annotations between two assemblies (works also for distant relationships, btw). But obviously, this will not re-build your gene models to factor in any new information gained through the superscaffolding... so you might want to re-annotate anyway.

Granted, the documentation is a bit sparse - so if you have any questions, let me know.
There is also a paper: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24976580/
Hi,
I am using Chromosembler to produce pseudochromosomes by mapping my scaffolds to the chromosome-level reference of a closely related species. An issue I'm facing is that after producing pseudochromosomes with Chromosembler I lose the gene annotation. I've tried to translate the coordinates from one reference to the other, but it does not seem to be very straightforward.
Do you have any suggestions/advice on how that can be done?
Thanks, Lucas
