From: Global marine microbial diversity and its potential in bioprospecting
Globally distributed marine metagenomes were collected and reanalysed for recovery of marine microbial metagenome-assembled-genomes (MAGs). Microbial genomes previously deposited in public NCBI databases and MAGs from two previous studies (OMD and OceanDNA) were downloaded and pooled with the newly recovered MAGs to construct a unified and comprehensive GOMC as a reference database for downstream analysis and future studies. Open reading frames were predicted from the assembled contigs and then dereplicated for the construction of a unique and comprehensive GOPC. Venn diagram shows the KOs overlap of GOPC with other previously published gene catalogues.
