Understanding DRAM and Genome Analysis at ISME19

I continue watching the ISME19 KBase workshop: “From Reads to Function, Day 2.” Jared Ellenbogen presented next. They spoke about “DRAM and genome-resolved inference.” Ellenbogen spoke about analyzing the fifteen genomes studied during the workshop with DRAM. The outputs of DRAM were described: a heat map with every row corresponding to a different genome or […]

Insights into dRep and DRAM Tools for MAGs

Tonight I started watching day 2 of the ISME19 workshop “From Reads to Function.” Mikayla Borton from Colorado State University presented on “DRAM and genome-resolved inference.” Borton started with dereplication of bins/MAGs. After that step, MAGs are annotated with DRAM. The tool used to dereplicate metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs) is dRep. Borton explained that the […]
