Abstract
The calculation of gut metabolic modules form gene profile
Guidelines
The calculation of gut metabolic modules form gene profile
Before start
The input is the gene profile
Step 1: the putative amino acid sequences were translated from the gene catalogues and aligned against the proteins/domains in the KEGG databases (release 79.0, with animal and plant genes removed) using BLASTP (v2.2.26, default parameter except that -e 0.01 -b 100 -K 1 -F T -m 8). Each protein was assigned to the KO group by the highest scoring annotated hit(s) containing at least one HSP scoring >60 bits.The relative abundance profile of KOs was determined by summing the relative abundance of genes from each KO.
Step 2: The calculation of gut metabolic modules by one command:
'java -jar gmms.jar -a 2 -d GMMs.v1.07.txt -i input_KO_profile -s average -o index'
