PLASS

Plass (Protein-Level ASSembler) is software to assemble short read sequencing data on a protein level. The main purpose of Plass is the assembly of complex metagenomic datasets.

Example

This wrapper can be used in the following way:

rule plass_paired:
    input:
        left=["reads/reads.left.fq.gz", "reads/reads2.left.fq.gz"],
        right=["reads/reads.right.fq.gz", "reads/reads2.right.fq.gz"]
    output:
        "plass/prot.fasta"
    log:
        "logs/plass.log"
    params:
        extra=""
    threads: 4
    wrapper:
        "v1.1.0/bio/plass"

rule plass_single:
    input:
        single=["reads/reads.left.fq.gz", "reads/reads2.left.fq.gz"],
    output:
        "plass/prot_single.fasta"
    log:
        "logs/plass_single.log"
    params:
        extra=""
    threads: 4
    wrapper:
        "v1.1.0/bio/plass"

Note that input, output and log file paths can be chosen freely.

When running with

snakemake --use-conda

the software dependencies will be automatically deployed into an isolated environment before execution.

Software dependencies
