PathoFact: A pipeline for the prediction of virulence factors and antimicrobial resistance genes in metagenomic data

2020-03-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Pathogenic microorganisms cause disease by invading, colonizing and damaging their host. Virulence factors including bacterial toxins contribute to their pathogenicity. Additionally, antimicrobial resistance genes allow pathogens to evade otherwise curative treatments. To understand causal relationships between microbiome compositions, functioning, and disease, it is therefore essential to ide...
