A new functional gene database, FOAM (Functional
Ontology Assignments for Metagenomes), was developed
to screen environmental metagenomic sequence
datasets. FOAM provides a new functional
ontology dedicated to classify gene functions relevant
to environmental microorganisms based on Hidden
Markov Models (HMMs). Sets of aligned protein
sequences (i.e. ‘profiles’) were tailored to...
