    Classify Bacterial and Archaeal fragments from 454-Metagenome

    Hello all,
    I have just started working with 454 metagenome datasets and was wondering if there is any tool that can classify reads from 454 into bacterial or archaeal sequences?

    I have come across many tools that do something similar only for 16s rRNA.

    Using a training dataset and word based classifier, can one divide the metagenome dataset into bacterial and archaeal sequences?

    Thank you for your time!!

    MGRast

    Have you looked into MGRAST? It is a free webserver with lots of functionality.

      Thank you for you suggestion.

      Yes, I have. I would really like something that has a lot of standalone capacity instead of a webserver....

          Thank you jimmybee! MetaPhlAn looks good.

          Any more recommendations?

          Once again, thank you for all your solutions.

            16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
            by SEQadmin2




            NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

            Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
            by SEQadmin2



            Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

            Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
