UROPA is a command line based tool intended for genomic region annotation.

Advantages of UROPA

  • Detect the most appropriate annotation of peaks, utilizing parameters such as
    • feature type
    • feature anchor
    • feature direction relative to peak location
    • filtering for attribute values, e.g. “protein_coding”
    • strand specificity
  • Utilization of any available GTF files as annotation reference
  • Multiple queries can be processed in a single run
  • Graduated annotation due to prioritization
  • Multiple output tables (allhits, finalhits, besthits)
  • Visual summary for annotation evaluation
  • Preparation of custom annotation files with the UROPA to GTF utility
