Binh Chau hot spring water metagenome Metagenome. Binh Chau hot spring water metagenome

Next generation metagenomic DNA sequencing of sediment collected from the Binh Chau hot spring in Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province in Vietnam. Isolated total DNA was sequenced using two different sequencing platforms: Illumina and Ion Torrent. Both Ion Torrent and Illumina raw reads were corrected separately using SPADES and corrected reads were jointly assembled also using SPADES. The assembled metagenome was annotated using an in-house pipeline and was compared to the metagenomes from two other hot springs in order to find genes that encode for industrially relevant enzymes for the biobased economy.
