It is generally a good idea to include as much metadata as possible, since this data can easily be explored later on. Also of importance are the two source facilities: "BZ" and "CJS". In this mapping file the genotypes of interest can be seen: wildtype (WT), chemerin knockout (chemerin_KO) and chemerin receptor knockout (CMKLR1_KO). Metadata associated with each sample is indicated in the mapping file (map.txt). Originally 116 mouse samples acquired from two different facilities were used for this project ( only a subset of samples were used in this tutorial dataset, for simplicity). This tutorial dataset was originally used in a project to determine whether knocking out the protein chemerin affects gut microbial composition. For this tutorial we will process V6-V8 amplified sequences. variable regions 3 to 4) in scientific papers. Only a subset of variable regions are generally sequenced for amplicon studies and you will see them referred to using syntax like "V3-V4" (i.e. These characteristics make this gene useful for analyzing microbial communities at reduced cost compared to shotgun metagenomics approaches. It features regions that are conserved among these organisms, as well as variable regions that allow distinction among organisms. The most common marker gene used for prokaryotes is the 16S ribosomal RNA gene.

This approach contrasts with shotgun metagenomics where all the DNA in a sample is sequenced.

This tutorial outlines how to process 16S rRNA sequencing data with the DADA2 pipeline.

We recommend that users check out QIIME2 as a better alternative to the below tutorial. Package in your R session.Please note that DADA2 can now be run with QIIME2 in a much smoother pipeline.
