MGnify Genomes’ #marine catalogue has been updated to v2, with 33x the number of genomes compared to v1. It covers nearly 9x more species, and brings new annotations from our updated pipeline. This work is part of BlueRemediomics and AtlantECO Project 🇪🇺🇧🇷🇿🇦. ebi-metagenomics.github.io/blog/2024/08/0…

Introducing the 😱OMG dataset and 🤖gLM2! OMG is a massive Open MetaGenomic corpus totaling 3.1Tbp of data and 3.3B proteins. We train gLM2, the first mixed-modality genomic language model, on OMG. 1/🧵 #BioML #AI4Science

Cyanobacteria are key players in the food chain to support all other life forms. New research uncovers unique genetic adaptations that facilitate cyanobacteria symbioses, expanding our understanding of their role in sustaining our ecosystems. nature.com/articles/s4159… Blaxter Lab

At #ISME19 ? Stop by poster PS2.11.016 to see the growing MGnify Genomes resource with Tatiana Gurbich

Coordinator Rob Finn was invited to present BlueRemediomics developments again at #ISME19 in the marine ecology session - shown here is the updated version of the marine genomes catalogue in MGnify

From Ensembl to UniProt , the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) , and more, our data resources provide scientists with vital access to biodiversity data. Discover how these data resources are supporting global biodiversity and climate change research. ebi.ac.uk/about/news/tec…

🎙🙌Nature Biotechnology interviewed our project co-coordinator Rob Finn from EMBL-EBI on "#Plastic-eating bacteria that boost the growing business of #bioremediation"! Read how #BlueRemediomics uses MGnify to screen for plastic-eating enzymes.👉 nature.com/articles/s4158…

It's been great getting back to running our courses after the summer break. This week we've enjoyed meeting participants for "Metagenomics bioinformatics at MGnify". Interested in doing this course in 2025? Sign up to our list to receive updates: ebi.ac.uk/training/event…

Plastic pollution is an environmental challenge. However, nature is creating its own solutions, such as plastic-eating bacteria. Our researchers are using data from Fondation Tara Océan, MGnify and the #AlphaFold Database to find these enzymes in our oceans 🌊 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Take a sneak peek into some of the work done by the MGnify team as our coordinator Lorna Richardson talks about the exciting world of the microbiome data!

Join Evangelos Karatzas on the 13th of November for a webinar: how our MGnify Proteins resource helps with exploration of the metagenomics sequence space. He'll demo newly released ways to query the dataset, and MGnifams - a new set of protein families derived from it.

Martín Beracochea just gave a great talk on the migration of MGnify, the metagenomics resource at EMBL-EBI, to Nextflow, while adhering to nf-core best practices!

Did you know that it's World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week? So it's the perfect time to explore our new tutorial that explores the tools and resources that support AMR research. ebi.ac.uk/training/onlin… Available to access at any time, for free. #WAAW #AMR

MGnify is also live on bluesky 🦋 bsky.app/profile/mgnify… We will continue to post on both X and bluesky, and we look forward to engaging with you on your preferred platform.

Presenting at the "Metagenomics in spaceflight" workshop at NASA, Lorna-lorna presented the vast microbiome resources available at EMBL-EBI and MGnify to assist discussions to develop a roadmap for integration of metagenomic sequencing into planetary protection.

At ELIXIR Europe's 2024 BioHackathon, we co-led work to improve how the metagenomics community can use RO-Crates to collectively describe and analyse more datasets, more efficiently. Our preprint envisions this as a federated microbiome analysis service: doi.org/10.37044/osf.i…
