Bins and functional annotation

Hi all,

I have a couple of questions to ask.

  1. I have assembled sequences from a microbial community and have used Prodigal to produce .gff and .fasta files with it. Now I have no idea what to do with those files for downstream analysis and functional annotation. Any suggestions are welcome.

  2. I have received ~500 bins in .fasta format. Should I blast them to see what microbes they are or are there any other methods to analyse them?

Cheers and many thanks

Alan

You can use HumanN2 software to predict metabolic pathways. You can also try BLASTkoala of KEGG.

If you are working with microbiome: Check microbiome helper, and metagenomic SOP.
