traits-finder 1.3

search and summarize traits in genomes and metagenomes

traits_finder

Introduction

• traits_finder searches and summarizes traits in genomes and metagenomes
• input: reference database and folder of genomes/metagenomes
• requirement: blast or hmm
• requirement: for hmm, you need to prepare the hmm database
• optional: diamond, bwa, hs-blastn, usearch

Install

pip install traits_finder
in preparation: anaconda download caozhichongchong/traits_finder

Availability

How to use it

Search traits: boring and slow...

1. search protein reference sequences in genomes by similarity search
   traits_finder genome -db your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.genome.format --orf your.input.orf.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s --u diamond --bp blastp -dbf 1 -s 1\

2. search protein reference sequences in metagenomes by similarity search
   traits_finder meta -db your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.metagenomes.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s --u diamond --bp blastp -dbf 1 -s 1\

3. search dna reference sequences in genomes by similarity search
   traits_finder genome -db your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.genome.format --orf your.input.orf.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s --u usearch.or.hs-blastn --bp blastn -dbf 2 -s 1\

4. search dba reference sequences in metagenomes by similarity search
   traits_finder meta -db your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.metagenomes.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s --u usearch.or.hs-blastn --bp blastn -dbf 2 -s 1\

5. search protein reference sequences in genomes by hmm
   traits_finder genome -db your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.genome.format --orf your.input.orf.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s --hmm hmmscan -dbf 1 -s 2\

6. search dna reference sequences in genomes by alignment
   traits_finder genome -db your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.genome.format --orf your.input.orf.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s --u usearch.or.hs-blastn --bp blastn --bwa bwa -dbf 2 -s 1\

7. search dna reference sequences in metagenomes by alignment
   traits_finder meta -db your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.metagenomes.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s --u usearch.or.hs-blastn --bp blastn --bwa bwa -dbf 2 -s 1\

Summarize results: cool and fast!

1. summarize traits in genome
   traits_finder sum_genome -db your.db -m function.mapping.your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.genome.format --orf your.input.orf.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s\

2. summarize traits in metagenomes
   traits_finder sum_meta -db your.db -m function.mapping.your.db -i your.input.folder -fa your.input.metagenomes.format --r your.output.folder --r16 your.output.folder.for.16s -s 1\
