PyNAST: a flexible tool for aligning sequences to a template alignment
TLDR
Python Nearest Alignment Space Termination (PyNAST) is a complete reimplementation of NAST, which includes three convenient interfaces: a Mac OS X GUI, a command-line interface and a simple application programming interface (API). Expand

Predictive functional profiling of microbial communities using 16S rRNA marker gene sequences
Profiling phylogenetic marker genes, such as the 16S rRNA gene, is a key tool for studies of microbial communities but does not provide direct evidence of a community's functional capabilities. Here… Expand

Ultra-high-throughput microbial community analysis on the Illumina HiSeq and MiSeq platforms
DNA sequencing continues to decrease in cost with the Illumina HiSeq2000 generating up to 600 Gb of paired-end 100 base reads in a ten-day run. Here we present a protocol for community amplicon… Expand
