Whokaryote: distinguishing eukaryotic and prokaryotic contigs in metagenomes based on gene structure

2021-11-17

Abstract excerpt

Metagenomics has become a prominent technology to study the functional potential of all organisms in a microbial community. Most studies focus on the bacterial content of these communities, while ignoring eukaryotic microbes. Indeed, many metagenomics analysis pipelines silently assume that all contigs in a metagenome are prokaryotic. However, because of marked differences in gene structure, prokaryotic gene predi...
