Now we have what I call the big three biomes represented in @mgnifydb.bsky.social, soil, marine and human. We are constantly looking for MAGs to add to our catalogues. Talk to @tgurbich.bsky.social if you have data you want to contribute.

MGnify are at ISMB/ECCB 2025 this week! Catch our talks on Wednesday to learn about our latest services and tools. 👇 #ISMB2025 #ISMBECCB2025

With the addition of the soil genome catalogue, MGnify now hosts over half a million genomes - exciting milestone for the resource.

The genome catalogue for the soil microbiome is now live on MGnify! Built from MAGs & isolate genomes across 21 studies (including the recently published SMAG and Microflora Danica catalogues), it features 19,472 species.

It’s #WorldMicrobiomeDay! This year’s theme is Microbiome 101: What You Need to Know — here we present MGnify’s guide to microbiome data! 🔬

4/ We link publications with data from established repositories, including: 🔎Protein structures @pdbeurope.bsky.social 🌍Metagenomic data @Mgnifydb.bsky.social 🔎Protein families & functional sites @interprodb.bsky.social 🧪Bioactive molecules & drug discovery @chembl.bsky.social And more!!

I've recently joined the Nextflow Ambassador program, we are using Nextflow in our team at @mgnifydb.bsky.social extensively. I'm excited to help grow the community around Nextflow. Being originally from 🇺🇾 (but now living in 🇬🇧), I want to help grow the LATAM Nextflow community.

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: osf.io/preprints/bi...

Presenting at the "Metagenomics in spaceflight" workshop at NASA, Lorna- @microbiodata.bsky.social presented the vast microbiome resources available at @ebi.embl.org and MGnify to assist discussions to develop a roadmap for integration of metagenomic sequencing into planetary protection.

MGnify Proteins – our vast database of protein sequences derived from metagenomic sequencing – is now accessible via the web () and via @googlecloud BigQuery Public Datasets. For the full news, see ebi.ac.uk/metagenomics/p… ebi.ac.uk/about/news/upd…

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 @EU_AtlantECO. ebi-metagenomics.github.io/blog/2024/08/0…

Food production systems play a vital role in the food we consume. @FindingPhenoEU uses statistical methods to assess how host-microbiome interactions for a variety of crops and animals can be leveraged for healthy and sustainable food production. 🐔🐷🐟🌽🍅🐝#WorldMicrobiomeDay

We're celebrating @UNBiodiversity's #BiodiversityDay with a milestone for our #PartOfThePlan: MGnify has now analysed over 5000 studies of publicly available data, characterising microbial biodiversity in a wide range of environments around the Earth and beyond.

Our annual #metagenomics #bioinformatics at MGnify course, running virtually in September, covers the lifecycle of metagenomics projects from experimental design through quality control & annotation to MAG generation & more. Apply by 9 June: ebi.ac.uk/training/event…

There is still time to register for the COS-EMBL workshop on Plant Macro and Microbiomes - exploring plant biotic interactions. Registration has been extended until 12th April. embl.org/events/cos-emb…

Presenting MGnify Genomes' new catalogue comprising 112,951 genomes (2,847 species level clusters) derived from public mouse gut datasets with contributions from @SilasKieser, @StrowigLab, @PedicordLab, generated as part of our work with @MRCMouseNetwork. ebi-metagenomics.github.io/blog/2024/03/0…

MGnify is proud to be part of @MRCMouseNetwork (NMGN). The microbiome cluster, led by Prof Fiona Powrie, explores the impact of the microbiome in mouse models of barrier surface-associated diseases in humans. NMGN microbiome data: cell.com/cell-genomics/… ebi.ac.uk/metagenomics/s…

Last week at the Festival of Genomics & Biodata, Lorna Richardson - the Microbiome Informatics coordinator  presented the services and data products we provide at MGnify including the extensive protein database and biome-specific genome catalogues #FOG2024 @FoGenomics
