What it does

Predict metagenomic function from 16S marker genes using PICRUSt2 pipeline

Best for

Metagenomics when shotgun sequencing is unavailable and KEGG/MetaCyc function prediction suffices.

Inputs
  • · 16S ASV table (samples×taxa)
  • · FASTA sequences
Outputs
  • · KEGG orthologs (KO) abundance table
  • · MetaCyc pathway predictions
  • · NSTI quality scores
Requires
  • · picrust2 cli
  • · R phyloseq/ALDEx2
Preconditions

16S rRNA ASV calls; Ollama/picrust2 installed

Failure modes

High NSTI (>2) reduces prediction reliability; horizontal gene transfer not detected

Trust signals
  • · NSTI quality-control thresholds documented
  • · Pathway name mapping via KEGGREST
