Summary

  • MGnify is a dedicated resource to analyse metagenomics data.
  • Metagenomic sequence data and their descriptive metadata have to be archived in ENA before MGnify can analyse them.
  • The submission of metagenomics data to ENA involves four steps:
    – uploading metagenomic sequence data
    – creating  an ensemble of samples, referred to as a study
    – providing metadata by completing a biome-related checklist
    – linking samples and metadata to the metagenomic sequence data
  • The submission can be performed in one session or in separate sessions.
