Microbiome Datahub: an open-access platform integrating environmental metadata, taxonomy, and functional annotation for comprehensive metagenome-assembled genome datasets
Microbiome Datahub integrates MAG genome sequences, gene and protein predictions, quality metrics, environmental and taxonomic annotations, ortholog cluster assignments, and phenotype predictions, all accessible via a web interface, API, and bulk downloads. By combining original MAGs with curated metadata and functional annotations, Microbiome Datahub constitutes a comprehensive and reusable resource that will accelerate microbiome and microbial genomics research.
