contigs-db kegg-functions reaction-ref-data kegg-data
This program stores a metabolic reaction-network in a contigs-db or pan-db.
The network consists of data on biochemical reactions predicted to be encoded by the genome or pangenome.
Information on the predicted reactions and the involved metabolites are stored in tables of the contigs-db or pan-db. The program, anvi-get-metabolic-model-file, can be used to export the reaction-network from the database to a reaction-network-json file formatted for input into programs for flux balance analysis.
anvi-setup-kegg-data downloads, among other files, the binary relations files needed to construct a reaction-network from KEGG Orthology (KO) sequence annotations. The following command sets up the database in a default anvi’o directory.
anvi-setup-kegg-data
anvi-setup-modelseed-database sets up the ModelSEED Biochemistry database, which harmonizes biochemical data from various reference databases, including KEGG. The following command sets up the database in a default anvi’o directory.
anvi-setup-modelseed-database
Alternatively, KEGG data can be set up not from a snapshot but by downloading the newest files available from KEGG using the -D
flag. In the following command, a higher number of download threads than the default of 1 is provided by -T
, which significantly speeds up downloading.
anvi-setup-kegg-data -D -T 5
To preserve KEGG data that you already have set up for whatever reason, the new snapshot or download can be placed in a non-default location using the option, --kegg-data-dir
.
anvi-setup-kegg-data --kegg-data-dir path/to/other/directory
anvi-reaction-network
requires a --kegg-dir
argument to seek KEGG data in a non-default location.
Likewise, different versions of the ModelSEED Biochemistry database can be set up in non-default locations and used with the --modelseed-dir
argument.
anvi-setup-modelseed-database --dir path/to/other/directory
anvi-reaction-network takes a either a contigs-db OR a pan-db and genomes-storage-db as required input. Genes stored within the contigs-db or genomes-storage-db must have KO protein annotations, which can be assigned by anvi-run-kegg-kofams.
anvi-reaction-network -c /path/to/contigs-db
If a contigs-db already contains a reaction-network from a previous run of this program, the flag --overwrite-existing-network
can overwrite the existing network with a new one. For example, if anvi-run-kegg-kofams is run again on a database using a newer version of KEGG, then anvi-reaction-network should be rerun to update the reaction-network derived from the KO annotations.
anvi-reaction-network -c /path/to/contigs-db \ --overwrite-existing-network
A reaction-network can also be generated from consensus KO annotations of gene clusters. This can be used to understand the conservation or divergence of parts of the metabolic network between organisms in the pangenome.
anvi-reaction-network -p /path/to/pan-db \ -g /path/to/genomes-storage-db
