AAI-profiler: fast proteome-wide exploratory analysis reveals taxonomic identity, misclassification and contamination

We present AAI-profiler, a web server for exploratory analysis and quality control in comparative genomics. AAI-profiler summarizes proteome-wide sequence search results to identify novel species, assess the need for taxonomic reclassification and detect multi-isolate and contaminated samples. AAI-profiler visualises results using a scatterplot that shows the Average Amino-acid Identity (AAI) from the query proteome to all similar species in the...
