EzBioCloud MTP provides an up-to-date prediction of KEGG-based orthologs, modules, and pathways.
We use the same algorithm as PICRUSt with up-to-date taxonomic, 16S, genome and KEGG databases.

Comparing your own data with the published microbiome data

EzBioCloud MTP provides various publicly available datasets (>11,000 samples) for you to compare with your own 16S data. These include US HMP set (8,138 samples) and various disease-related dataset (e.g., diabetes, IBS, Crohn’s diseases, multiple sclerosis, HIV infection) as well as mouse, soil and water samples.

Two fecal samples from a Korean were compared with US HMP data (40 samples).

This comparison would only take a few seconds.
Beta-diversity was calculated by Jensen-Shannon distance with copy-number correction.

Maximize your discovery using species-level taxonomic identification

EzBioCloud 16S database contains >2,300 species represented by accurate, full-length 16S rRNA sequences that were generated by the PacBio’s ccs. This would allow most comprehensive species-level profiling using closed-reference OTU picking strategy.

Species assigned for a fecal microbiome of a Jackson Lab. C57BL/6 mouse.

The species labeled as PACxxxxxx_s is represented by a curated PacBio sequence.
