phylofunc 2.0

Generate phylofunc to incorporate microbiome phylogeny to inform on metaproteomic functional distance.

phylofunc

'phylofunc' is a Python package for generating phylofunc to incorporate microbiome phylogeny to inform on metaproteomic functional distance. It enables efficient calculation of functional beta-diversity distances between sample pairs and generates comprehensive distance metrics across multiple samples.

Installation of package

You can install this package via pip:
pip install phylofunc

Usage

Once installed, you can use the phylofunc package in a Python script or an interactive environment.

Quick Start

Import package

from phylofunc import PhyloFunc_distance
from phylofunc import PhyloFunc_matrix

Script

Two input parameters are required. The first is a phylogenetic tree (default: bac120_iqtree_v2.0.1.nwk). The second is a phylogeny-informed Taxon-Function table, which includes columns labeled Taxon, Function, and the names of samples (default: Taxon_Function_distance.csvor Taxon_Function_matrix.csv).

1. Calculate phylofunc distance between sample pairs

PhyloFunc_distance(tree_file='bac120_iqtree_v2.0.1.nwk', sample_file='Taxon_Function_distance.csv')

2. Calculate phylofunc distance matrix across multiple samples

PhyloFunc_matrix(tree_file='bac120_iqtree_v2.0.1.nwk', sample_file='Taxon_Function_matrix.csv')

Output

phylofunc distance or phylofunc distance matrix can be output.

Performance optimization

This package improves performance by reducing disk I/O operations and processing data in memory. This enables faster computations with large datasets.
