netmap.masking.external.get_genome_annotation_from_gtf¶

netmap.masking.external.get_genome_annotation_from_gtf(gtf_df)[source]¶

Return gene-feature rows from a parsed GTF DataFrame.

Filters the GTF to rows where feature == 'gene', selects a standard set of columns, removes entries with empty gene names, and prepends 'chr' to the chromosome identifier.

Parameters:: gtf_df (pd.DataFrame) – Genome annotation loaded from a GTF file, expected to contain standard GTF columns including seqname, feature, start, end, gene_id, gene_name, and gene_biotype.
Returns:: Filtered and reformatted DataFrame of gene features with an additional chr column containing the prefixed chromosome name.
Return type:: pd.DataFrame
