UMGAP: the Unipept MetaGenomics Analysis Pipeline
2021
Shotgun metagenomics is now commonplace to gain insights into communities from diverse environments, but fast, memory-friendly, and accurate tools are needed for deep taxonomic analysis of the metagenome data. To meet this need we developed UMGAP, a highly versatile open source command line tool implemented in Rust for taxonomic profiling of shotgun metagenomes. It differs from state-of-the-art tools in its use of protein code regions identified in short reads for robust taxonomic identifications, a broad-spectrum index that can identify both archaea, bacteria, eukaryotes and viruses, a non-monolithic design, and support for interactive visualizations of complex biodiversities.
