mminte 0.2.3

Microbial Metabolic interactions

MMinte (pronounced /‘minti/) is a set of widgets that allows you to explore the pairwise interactions (positive or negative) that occur in a microbial community. From an association network and 16S rDNA sequence data, MMinte identifies corresponding genomes, reconstructs metabolic models, estimates growth under specific metabolic conditions, analyzes pairwise interactions, assigns interaction types to network links, and generates the corresponding network of interactions.

Installation

Use pip to install MMinte from PyPI (we recommend doing this inside a virtual environment):

pip install mminte
