Hi @Manolis1,

I have a list of promoter regions generated by promoter2 tool and a list of regions (exons, transcripts) generated by StringTie tool. I would like to know whether those identified promoter regions will fall in the second list.

I feel may be you have similar problem. I f you have found the way for your above query or know way for my query please suggest.

Thank you
