NOTE: This is a new major revision of AMRFinderPlus that has a changed database format. You will need to run amrfinder -U
to get database release 2024-10-22.1 or later to use this version. This AMRFinderPlus includes StxTyper version 1.0.27 for E. coli Stx operon typing.
Software and database format changes
- See https://github.com/evolarjun/amr/wiki/New-in-AMRFinderPlus/ for more details.
- StxTyper (https://github.com/ncbi/stxtyper) which accurately types full-length stx operons now included with AMRFinderPlus.
- Database filename changes to standardize filenames and make writing scripts easier (See https://github.com/ncbi/amr/wiki/New-in-AMRFinderPlus for more information).
- Column names in output have been changed to more closely other NCBI Pathogen Detection resources such as MicroBIGG-E.
- Point mutations can now be reported with symbols different from the standard format.
- The optional
hierarchy_node
field will now contain two node IDs for fusion proteins and stx operons separated by '::'. - The ability to have different curated blast cutoffs at multiple levels of the hierarchy with the same reference protein has been added.
- The same protein can be used both as a reference gene to be reported and as the reference for point mutations.
