The curatedMetagenomicData package provides standardized, curated human microbiome data for novel analyses. It includes gene families, marker abundance, marker presence, pathway abundance, pathway coverage, and relative abundance for samples collected from different body sites. The bacterial, fungal, and archaeal taxonomic abundances for each sample were calculated with MetaPhlAn3, and metabolic functional potential was calculated with HUMAnN3. The manually curated sample metadata and standardized metagenomic data are available as (Tree)SummarizedExperiment objects.
Installation
To install curatedMetagenomicData from Bioconductor, use BiocManager as follows.
BiocManager::install("curatedMetagenomicData")To install curatedMetagenomicData from GitHub, use BiocManager as follows.
BiocManager::install("waldronlab/curatedMetagenomicData", dependencies = TRUE, build_vignettes = TRUE)Most users should simply install curatedMetagenomicData from Bioconductor.
Examples
To access curated metagenomic data, users will use the curatedMetagenomicData() method both to query and return resources. Multiple resources can be queried or returned with a single call to curatedMetagenomicData(), but only the titles of resources are returned by default.

## 2021-03-31.AsnicarF_2021.relative_abundanceWhen the dryrun argument is set to FALSE, a list of SummarizedExperiment and/or TreeSummarizedExperiment objects is returned. The rownames argument determines the type of rownames to use for relative_abundance resources: either "long" (the default), "short" (species name), or "NCBI" (NCBI Taxonomy ID). When a single resource is requested, a single element list is returned.
