Run dbcan
Description
run_dbcan is the standalone version of dbCAN annotation tool for automated CAZyme annotation. The application is useful for the following:
(1) CAZyme substrate prediction based on dbCAN-sub; and
(2) CGC substrate prediction based on dbCAN-PUL searching and dbCAN-sub majority voting. For CGC substrate prediction, please see the dbCAN-seq paper by Zheng et al. 2023 for details.
