The study of microbiomes using whole-metagenome shotgun sequencing enables the analysis uncultivated microbial populations that may have important roles in their environments. Extracting individual draft genomes (bins) facilitates metagenomic at single genome level. Software and pipelines for such become diverse sophisticated, resulting a significant burden biologists to access use them. Furthermore, while bin extraction algorithms are rapidly improving, there is still lack tools evaluation visualization. To address these challenges, we present metaWRAP, modular pipeline software data analysis. MetaWRAP deploys state-of-the-art handle processing starting from raw reads ending bins flexible enough give investigators control over analysis, being easy-to-install easy-to-use. It includes hybrid leverage strengths variety extract refine high-quality through consolidation reassembly. MetaWRAP's algorithm outperforms binning approaches other programs both synthetic real sets. Finally, metaWRAP comes with numerous modules bins, including taxonomy assignment, abundance estimation, functional annotation, an easy-to-use automates core tasks contributing improvements interpretation bins. refinement reassembly consistently outperform approaches. Each module also standalone component, making it versatile tool tackling data. open-source available https://github.com/bxlab/metaWRAP .

Culture-independent analyses of microbial communities have progressed dramatically in the last decade, particularly due to advances methods for biological profiling via shotgun metagenomics. Opportunities improvement continue accelerate, with greater access multi-omics, reference genomes, and strain-level diversity. To leverage these, we present bioBakery 3, a set integrated, improved taxonomic, strain-level, functional, phylogenetic metagenomes newly developed build on largest sequences now available. Compared current alternatives, MetaPhlAn 3 increases accuracy taxonomic profiling, HUMAnN improves that functional potential activity. These detected novel disease-microbiome links applications CRC (1262 metagenomes) IBD (1635 817 metatranscriptomes). Strain-level an additional 4077 StrainPhlAn PanPhlAn unraveled structure common gut microbe Ruminococcus bromii , previously described by only 15 isolate genomes. With open-source implementations cloud-deployable reproducible workflows, platform can help researchers deepen resolution, scale, multi-omic community studies.

The body-wide human microbiome plays a role in health, but its full diversity remains uncharacterized, particularly outside of the gut and international populations. We leveraged 9,428 metagenomes to reconstruct 154,723 microbial genomes (45% high quality) spanning body sites, ages, countries, lifestyles. recapitulated 4,930 species-level genome bins (SGBs), 77% without public repositories (unknown SGBs [uSGBs]). uSGBs are prevalent (in 93% well-assembled samples), expand underrepresented phyla, enriched non-Westernized populations (40% total SGBs). annotated 2.85 M genes SGBs, many associated with conditions including infant development (94,000) or Westernization (106,000). permit deeper analyses increase average mappability metagenomic reads from 67.76% 87.51% (median 94.26%) 65.14% 82.34% mouth. thus identify thousands yet-to-be-named species, pangenomes human-associated microbes, allow better exploitation technologies.

The composition of the human gut microbiota is linked to health and disease, but knowledge individual microbial species needed decipher their biological roles. Despite extensive culturing sequencing efforts, complete bacterial repertoire remains undefined. Here we identify 1,952 uncultured candidate by reconstructing 92,143 metagenome-assembled genomes from 11,850 microbiomes. These substantially expand known collective microbiota, with a 281% increase in phylogenetic diversity. Although newly identified are less prevalent well-studied populations compared reference isolate genomes, they improve classification understudied African South American samples more than 200%. encode hundreds biosynthetic gene clusters possess distinctive functional capacity that might explain elusive nature. Our work expands diversity bacteria, which provides unprecedented resolution for taxonomic characterization intestinal microbiota.

Viruses are a significant player in many biosphere and human ecosystems, but most signals remain "hidden" metagenomic/metatranscriptomic sequence datasets due to the lack of universal gene markers, database representatives, insufficiently advanced identification tools.Here, we introduce VirSorter2, DNA RNA virus tool that leverages genome-informed advances across collection customized automatic classifiers improve accuracy range detection. When benchmarked against genomes from both isolated uncultivated viruses, VirSorter2 uniquely performed consistently with high (F1-score > 0.8) viral diversity, while all other tools under-detected viruses outside group represented reference databases (i.e., those order Caudovirales). Among evaluated, was also able minimize errors associated atypical cellular sequences including eukaryotic plasmids. Finally, as virosphere exploration unravels novel sequences, VirSorter2's modular design makes it inherently expand new types via maintain maximal sensitivity specificity.With multi-classifier design, demonstrates higher overall major groups will advance our knowledge evolution, virus-microbe interaction various ecosystems.
