MetaPhlAn Profiler Skill
Purpose
Enable MetaPhlAn metagenomic profiling for species-level community composition.
Capabilities
- Clade-specific marker gene analysis
- Species-level quantification
- Strain-level profiling (StrainPhlAn)
- Unknown species estimation
- Multi-sample heatmaps
- Comparative analysis
Usage Guidelines
- Use latest marker database
- Profile at species level for most analyses
- Apply strain-level analysis when relevant
- Visualize community composition
- Compare across samples and conditions
- Document database versions
Dependencies
- MetaPhlAn4
- StrainPhlAn
- mOTUs
Process Integration
- Shotgun Metagenomics Pipeline (shotgun-metagenomics)
