De novo discovery of conserved gene clusters in microbial genomes with Spacedust

2024-10-03

Abstract excerpt

Metagenomics has revolutionized environmental and human-associated microbiome studies. However, the limited fraction of proteins with known biological process and molecular functions presents a major bottleneck. In prokaryotes and viruses, evolution favors keeping genes participating in the same biological processes co-localized as conserved gene clusters. Conversely, conservation of gene neighborhood indicates fu...
