| Full name: | a database for composition and roles of animal microbiome |
| Description: | CRAMdb is a comprehensive resource of curated and consistently annotated metagenomes for non-human animals. It focuses on composition and role of microbiome in various animal species. We annotated metagenomes from 516 animals from 475 projects (including 16S, 18S, ITS, and metagenomics sequencing data) to construct a comprehensive database that is equipped with 9430 bacteria, 2216 fungi, 278 archaea, and 458 viruses. |

CRAMdb: a comprehensive database for composition and roles of microbiome in animals. [PMID: 36318246]
CRAMdb (a database for composition and roles of animal microbiome) is a comprehensive resource of curated and consistently annotated metagenomes for non-human animals. It focuses on the composition and roles of the microbiome in various animal species. The main goal of the CRAMdb is to facilitate the reuse of animal metagenomic data, and enable cross-host and cross-phenotype comparisons. To this end, we consistently annotated microbiomes (including 16S, 18S, ITS and metagenomics sequencing data) of 516 animals from 475 projects spanning 43 phenotype pairs to construct the database that is equipped with 9430 bacteria, 278 archaea, 2216 fungi and 458 viruses. CRAMdb provides two main contents: microbiome composition data, illustrating the landscape of the microbiota (bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses) in various animal species, and microbiome association data, revealing the relationships between the microbiota and various phenotypes across different animal species. More importantly, users can quickly compare the composition of the microbiota of interest cross-host or body site and the associated taxa that differ between phenotype pairs cross-host or cross-phenotype. CRAMdb is freely available at (http://www.ehbio.com/CRAMdb). |
