Hi there!!! I have several number of metagenomic 16S rRNA gene sequence. Firstly, I want to know the composition (i.e. all the species and strains out there in the metagenome) of the metagenome. Secondly, I will do the functional profiling.
- Can i use MOTHUR software for the first purpose?
- What should I do for the second one?
THANK YOU...
Thanks Sir for your response. I have installed and trial run MOTHUR. I am a newbie in bioinformatics and a little confused. So it would be a great help if you please in short tell me the steps to run MOTHUR for profiling the species composition and their abundances.
Regards
Actually they have a great manual: https://mothur.org/wiki/mothur_manual/
Thanks Sir. I wanted a protocol. And I have got one.
