Abstract

The Integrated Microbial Genomes and Metagenomes (IMG/M) resource is a data management system that supports the analysis of sequence data from microbial communities in the integrated context of all publicly available draft and complete genomes from the three domains of life as well as a large number of plasmids and viruses. IMG/M currently contains thousands of genomes and metagenome samples with billions of genes. IMG/M-HMP is an IMG/M data mart serving the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) Human Microbiome Project (HMP), focussed on HMP generated metagenome datasets, and is one of the central resources provided from the HMP Data Analysis and Coordination Center (DACC). IMG/M-HMP is available at http://www.hmpdacc-resources.org/imgm_hmp/.

Highlights

  • The Integrated Microbial Genomes and Metagenomes (IMG/ M) system provides support for comparative analysis of metagenome sequence data generated by sequencing microbial communities, in the integrated context of a continuously expanding universe of genome and metagenome datasets generated worldwide

  • Human Microbiome Project (HMP) Data and Organization Integrated Microbial Genomes and Metagenomes (IMG/M)-HMP contains 748 metagenome datasets generated as part of the HMP initiative by sequencing samples collected from various body sites

  • HMP genomes and metagenomes in IMG/M-HMP are grouped both by body site category and by taxonomy, as shown in the left upper and lower panes of Figure 1(i)

Summary

Introduction

The Integrated Microbial Genomes and Metagenomes (IMG/ M) system provides support for comparative analysis of metagenome sequence data generated by sequencing microbial communities (microbiomes), in the integrated context of a continuously expanding universe of genome and metagenome datasets generated worldwide. HMP Data and Organization IMG/M-HMP contains 748 metagenome datasets generated as part of the HMP initiative by sequencing samples collected from various body sites (airways, gastrointestinal, oral, skin, urogenital).
