MGnify Proteins: accessing billions of metagenomic protein sequences and their metadata
EMBL-EBI
Abstract
Explore MGnify’s collection of 5.7 billion nonredundant protein sequences and their links to source assemblies and biomes. Demonstrations cover profile-based searches with HMMER, interpretation of Protein Landing Pages and programmatic queries of release Parquet files using tools such as DuckDB, connecting individual proteins with larger-scale retrieval.
