Gene prediction tool

Question

[MAPK]

Hi,

I have genomic scaffolds for highly conserved gene family from different animal species. I was able to do tblastn and identify the putative sequences using their orthologs that are already identified/published. I now need to predict the whole gene region using those scaffolds. In most cases the gene is within the same scaffold, but there are some genes that are extended in different scaffolds. Is there any program that can easily predict a gene distributed in different regions of different scaffolds? Thank you

AUGUSTUS is a modern gene prediction pipeline.

I strongly recommend you to use it.
