orthology assignment using phylogenetic and network analyses

Overview

Broccoli is designed to infer with high precision orthologous groups and pairs of proteins using a mixed phylogeny-network approach. Briefly, Broccoli performs ultra- fast phylogenetic analyses on most proteins and builds a network of orthologous relationships. Orthologous groups are then identified from the network using a parameter-free machine learning algorithm (label propagation). Broccoli also detects chimeric proteins resulting from gene-fusion events and assigns these proteins to the corresponding orthologous groups.

Requirements

To run Broccoli, you need (see the manual for installation advices):

  • a Unix system (MacOS or Linux)
  • Python version 3.6 or above
  • ete3 library
  • Diamond version 0.9.30 or above
  • FastTree version 2.1.11 or above (single-thread version)

Running Broccoli

All parameters and options are available using the -help argument (see also the manual for more details):

python broccoli.py -help

To test Broccoli with the small example dataset present in the directory example_dataset (30 sec to 1mn):

python broccoli.py -dir example_dataset

Broccoli will store the temporary and output files in 4 directories named dir_step1 to dir_step4 (one for each step) located in the current directory.
