Database size of humann

Microbial community profiling HUMAnN
1

Hello,
I am planning to use HUMAnN for functional annotation and metabolic pathway reconstruction of my shotgun metagenomic data. Before proceeding, I would like to confirm the storage requirements for the necessary databases.

Could you kindly provide information on:
The total disk space needed for the HUMAnN databases ChocoPhlAn and UniRef?

This will help me allocate sufficient resources for the analysis.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Best regards,
Alla

Hi,

For uniref90_ec_filtered_diamond: 1.6G
Chocophlan: 41G
Utility mapping database (see release notes humann 4): 2.7G

You might also need the Metaphlan (mpa_vOct22_CHOCOPhlAnSGB_202403) database, which is 19G.

Best, Barbara
