AMPSphere Pre-Computed Resources and Auxiliary Files for the Manuscript Codes

AMPSphere is a comprehensive catalog of antimicrobial peptides predicted using Macrel (DOI: 10.7717/peerj.10555) from 63,410 public metagenomes, ProGenomes v2.2 database (82,400 high-quality microbial genomes), and c.a. 4k non-whitelisted microbial genomes from NCBI. Currently, AMPSphere is available as a web resource at https://ampsphere.big-data-biology.org/. AMPSphere v.2022-03 contains 863,498 sequences (avg length: 36 amino acids, range 8-98). DRAMP database was used to find confirmed sequences with strict homology to reference. This approach showed that 2,488 peptides were previously confirmed in our dataset. The present repository is a data dump for the precomputed resources and files needed for its generation and analysis as a complement to the GitHub repository. The complementary documentation is also available for each one of the files. To use the files just download them and apply the command `untar` to decompress the folders.
