Group Call
- Participants: Katie, Tom, Patrick, Josh, Guillaume, Dongying, Sarah, Ladan, Stephen
 
- PICRUSTs: hold off for now
- Updated Jack, who will look into distributions in more detail in their work
 
 
- Data for protein family niche modeling
- Tara data will not be released until paper comes out
 - Guillaume will re-check CAMERA
 - Josh will look for 16S studies where we might be able to shotgun sequence the samples
 - Katie will touch base with Samantha Forde
 - Tom: hot springs?
 
 
- EFI: novel gene families using Sfams
- Sfam sequences not in Pfam, KEGG, etc.
 - Stephen & Patrick:
- Mapping Sfams to UniProt
 - Intersecting with other annotations
 - Ranking based on taxonomic diversity, ecological distribution, other properties
 
 - Redoing Sfam pipeline to identify more distant homologs
 - Status of Sfams build 3? Incomplete (sifting only), from June
 - Builds 2 and 3 could be useful for identifying additional sequences sifted into build 0/1 families
 - Stephen: What about using MetaRef? EggNOG?
 - Stephen: Simmap might be helpful (blast results)
 
 
- MicrobeDB
- Bugs fixed hopefully
 - Need to get new genomes downloaded
 
 
- Hiring to replace Tim
