DESCRIPTION

Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator::processed_transcript is one of the default aggregators, and was written to be compatible with the Sequence Ontology canonical gene. It aggregates raw "CDS", "5'-UTR", "3'-UTR", "transcription_start_site" and "polyA_site" features into "gene" features. The UTRs may also be named "untranslated_region," "five_prime_untranslated_region," or "three_prime_untranslated_region."
