Hi,

My aim is to identify CAZymes in a metatranscriptomics dataset, and I was hoping to use SHORTBRED to do so. I was wondering if any precomputed markers are available for the CAZy database/dbCAN? I noticed some previous posts where markers were created for this database, but am afraid I wont’ have enough RAM to compute them myself.

Thank you in advance!
