Hello,

I'm new to bioinformatics and I have a question about using MCScanX for a particular species. I have the genomic protein sequences and a GFF file for this species. However, after running BLASTP, I noticed that the IDs in the BLASTP results correspond to protein IDs, while the IDs in the GFF file represent gene IDs. As a result, when I use MCScanX, I'm getting zero synteny. Can you please advise me on how to resolve this issue? Thank you.
