mTAGs: taxonomic profiling using degenerate consensus reference sequences of ribosomal RNA genes

Guillem Salazar et al.

Summary: mTAGs is a new taxonomic profiling tool that aligns metagenomic sequencing reads to degenerate consensus reference sequences of ribosomal RNA genes, providing relative abundance profiles at multiple taxonomic ranks. It outperforms other tools at the genus level, achieving competitive or better results at the sub-genus level as well.

Comprehensive mouse microbiota genome catalog reveals major difference to its human counterpart

Silas Kieser et al.

Summary: This study created a comprehensive catalog of bacterial species commonly living in the gut of laboratory mice by analyzing all publicly available metagenomes. The catalog contains almost 42 thousand bacterial genomes from 1,573 species, of which 78.1% are uncultured. The researchers discovered that the microbial species in the gastrointestinal tracts of mice and humans are largely distinct.

Biosynthetic potential of the global ocean microbiome

Lucas Paoli et al.

Summary: Natural microbial communities are diverse and offer great potential for the discovery of enzymes and biochemical compounds. However, studying this diversity and assigning the synthesis of compounds to their hosts is challenging. In this study, we integrated microbial genomes from various sources and discovered thousands of new biosynthetic gene clusters, including in previously unsuspected phylogenetic groups. We identified a lineage rich in biosynthetic gene clusters and characterized the structures and enzymology of bioactive compounds. This research demonstrates the value of microbiomics-driven strategies in exploring previously undescribed enzymes and natural products.

Challenges in benchmarking metagenomic profilers

Zheng Sun et al.

Summary: A variety of computational tools exist for metagenomic profiling, each with distinct algorithms and features. It is crucial to consider the distinction between different types of relative sequence abundance when comparing these tools. Neglecting this distinction can lead to misleading conclusions when benchmarking metagenomic profilers, impacting both per-sample summary statistics and cross-sample comparisons. The microbiome research community should carefully consider the type of abundance data analyzed and clearly state the profiling strategy used to avoid potentially misleading biological conclusions.

Integrating taxonomic, functional, and strain-level profiling of diverse microbial communities with bioBakery 3

Francesco Beghini et al.

Summary: Culture-independent analyses of microbial communities have advanced significantly in the past decade, particularly due to the emergence of Shotgun Metagenomics. bioBakery 3, a newly developed toolset, enhances the accuracy and scope of taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic profiling in microbial community studies by providing an expanding set of reference sequences.

Evaluation of the Microba Community Profiler for Taxonomic Profiling of Metagenomic Datasets From the Human Gut Microbiome

Donovan H. Parks et al.

Summary: A fundamental goal of microbial ecology is to accurately determine species composition in microbial ecosystems. Microba Community Profiler (MCP) was found to generate accurate relative abundance estimates and fewer false positive predictions compared to other classifiers, establishing it as the best-in-class tool for comprehensive and accurate species profiling of human gastrointestinal samples. Using the Microba Genome Database significantly increases the accuracy of species classification.

On the optimistic performance evaluation of newly introduced bioinformatic methods

Stefan Buchka et al.

Summary: Many research articles claim that new data analysis methods outperform existing ones, but the veracity of such claims is questionable. This manuscript discusses the consequences of optimistic bias in evaluating novel data analysis methods, and quantitatively investigates this bias using an example from epigenetic analysis.
