Databases

Franklin's MMG and MCB stakeholders have kindly donated 10TB of storage space for centralized databases. The root databases directory is /share/databases.

alphafold2

The core alphafold2 databases are in the alphafold subdirectory, including uniref30, uniref90, uniprot, mgnify, all relevant pdb databases, and alphafold's models. The provided alphafold wrapper script sets these locations automatically.

CryoEM

Databases for relion and related tools like deepemhancer are available as well. These locations are automatically configured by the relion modules.

NCBI Blast

The blast subdirectory has the following NCBI databases available in blast format:

  • nr
  • 16S_ribosomal_RNA
  • 18S_fungal_sequences
  • 28S_fungal_sequences
  • mito
  • nt_prok
  • nt_viruses
  • pdbaa
  • pdbnt
  • refseq_protein
  • swissprot
  • taxdb

These are updated weekly via NCBI's update_blastdb.pl script.

Please file a ticket to request additional databases.
