Why

In theory, using the indivudal core-gene multiple sequence alignments from the core_gene_alignments directory of Panaroo, one could just run a sed command to concatenate these in a XMFA file.

sed -e '$s/$/\n=/' -s ../tests/data/aligned_gene_sequences_raw/*.fas > core_gene_alignment.xmfa

However, this approach suffers from 3 different issues:

• Sequence names need to be cleaned
• Ambiguous non N IUPAC characters need to be taken care of (CFML only accepts A,T,G,C,N,-)
• Genomes with missing genes will cause CFML to crash (core-genome defined at less 100%)

CoRecomb addresses all 3 of these issues. Additionally, CoRecomb uses the order of the genes defined in the pan_genome_reference.fa to re-order the genes in the XMFA file (which will be kept by CFML output core_gene_test_cfml.filtered.fasta).

Test it for yourself

poetry run pytest -vv

Test data can be found here tests/data

corecomb \
    --gene_al_dir tests/data/aligned_gene_sequences_raw \
    --pan_fa tests/data/pan_genome_reference.fa \
    --extension fas \
    --outfile corecomb.xmfa

Use the XMFA with ClonalFrameML

ClonalFrameML \
    input_tree.nwk \
    corecomb.xmfa \
    cfml_output_basename \
    -xmfa_file true \
    -show_progress true \
    -output_filtered true
