Download

The Download page is the entry point for reusable files underlying the SAR11 Genome Atlas. Compact web-facing files are served directly from the atlas repository, while larger sequence, annotation, HMM, and analysis archives are distributed through the versioned Zenodo dataset. Download links identify Zenodo-hosted files next to their displayed size.

Available Atlas Datasets

The following resources can currently be downloaded directly:

• Genome metadata and quality estimates: subclade_master.tsv contains the complete metadata for 542 SAR11 genomes and 20 phylogenetic outgroups. SAR11_Atlas_542_CheckM2_v1.0.2_quality_report.tsv contains the CheckM2 quality estimates for the 542 released SAR11 genomes.

The Download cards show the file size next to each available resource. OG-specific neighborhood tables are downloaded separately from the Neighboring Genes page.

Genome Metadata

subclade_master.tsv is the public, source-preserving metadata table. Two derived forms are maintained for web components:

• subclade.txt emphasizes numeric sampling depth and coordinates for the searchable table and map.
• subclade_cat.tsv emphasizes categorical metadata for Taxonium coloring.

All three forms contain 542 SAR11 genomes and 20 phylogenetic outgroups. Marine Longhurst codes and descriptions are retained where applicable. Freshwater and other nonmarine records keep Longhurst fields as NA and are represented through habitat and waterbody fields instead. Use subclade_master.tsv unless a web-component-specific input is required.

SAR11_Atlas_542_CheckM2_v1.0.2_quality_report.tsv contains CheckM2 v1.0.2 completeness and contamination estimates for exactly the 542 SAR11 genomes in the release; the 20 phylogenetic outgroups are not included. Genome selection used strict thresholds of completeness >85% and contamination <10%, with the documented cultured-strain exception HIMB2304 and OMZ genome exception ETNP2013_S02_SV82_300m_MAG_01 retained by design.

Orthogroup Assignments And Trees

The OrthoFinder archive includes Orthogroups.tsv, Orthogroups.GeneCount.tsv, Orthogroups_UnassignedGenes.tsv, overall and per-species statistics, species-overlap counts, the root-level hierarchical orthogroup table, the rooted node-labeled species tree, and a README recording the 542-genome analysis.

The resolved gene-tree archive contains trees for the 3,411 orthogroups with at least four protein sequences. In the OrthoFinder 3 default workflow, amino-acid sequences were aligned with FAMSA, approximate maximum-likelihood trees were inferred with FastTree using -fastest, and OrthoFinder rooted and resolved the trees with its hybrid species-overlap/duplication-loss coalescent procedure.

The Zenodo-hosted SAR11_Orthogroups_4577.hmm.tar.gz archive provides one profile HMM for each orthogroup in a combined HMM file; individual profiles can be extracted with hmmfetch.

Species Phylogenies

SAR11_542_bac120_iqtree_rooted_SAR11_only.tree contains the same 542 SAR11 tips displayed in the Genome Information and OG Information Taxonium views. It was rooted using 20 alphaproteobacterial outgroups before those outgroups were pruned.

SAR11_542_SCG165_fasttree.tree and SAR11_542_bac120_fasttree.tree provide alternative marker-set and inference-method results. The SAR11_165 HMM profiles were obtained from the Meren Lab SAR11 phylogenomics workflow, which describes the SAR11-focused genes retained from an earlier curated collection of 200 Alphaproteobacterial single-copy genes.

Functional Annotations

og_suggest.tsv summarizes representative KO, COG, and Pfam evidence for browsing. Representative values describe the most supported annotations within an orthogroup and are not necessarily shared by every member. The accompanying og_ko_counts.tsv, og_cog_counts.tsv, and og_pfam_counts.tsv files preserve the within-OG counts used by the interactive charts.

The full protein-coding gene annotation resource is a separate, larger table for all 675,669 proteins. It combines orthogroup IDs with outputs from COGclassifier, KOfamScan, PfamScan, quickARSC, and related protein-level fields. The complete all_prot_annotations.tsv table is distributed through Zenodo.

UniProt And AlphaFoldDB Results

All SAR11 proteins were searched against UniProtKB release 2026_01 Swiss-Prot and TrEMBL with DIAMOND v2.1.10.164 using a minimum amino-acid identity of 85% and --max-target-seqs 1. Candidates for the AlphaFoldDB-linked web table were additionally required to cover at least 80% of both query and subject sequences.

• uniprot_pid85_gene_hits.tsv contains 226,536 matched SAR11 proteins across 1,912 orthogroups.
• uniprot_pid85_og_representative_hits.tsv contains one representative UniProt hit for each of those 1,912 orthogroups.
• uniprot_pid85_afdb_matches.tsv contains 3,622 close sequence matches with confirmed AlphaFoldDB models across 1,686 orthogroups.
• uniprot_pid30_homologous_afdb_matches.tsv contains 11,051 confirmed homologous structure references across 2,993 orthogroups after applying at least 30% identity, at least 80% query and subject coverage, and an E-value no greater than 1e-5.
• uniprot_structure_references.tsv is the downloadable compact Web table containing 8,057 AlphaFoldDB structure references. It retains close matches where available and uses homologous references only for the 1,308 additional orthogroups without a close match, covering 2,994 orthogroups in total.

A UniProt hit is a sequence-similarity result, not proof that every orthogroup member has the same sequence or structure. Use identity, coverage, domain annotations, and AlphaFold confidence together when interpreting a match.

A broader DIAMOND search using a minimum identity of 30% and --max-target-seqs 10 was filtered at 80% query coverage, 80% subject coverage, and an E-value of 1e-5. For the combined structure-reference table, close matches require identity ≥85% and both coverage values ≥80%; homologous references require identity ≥30%, both coverage values ≥80%, and E-value ≤1e-5. The 30%-identity and 80%-coverage combination follows a sequence-similarity criterion used in Seq2Symm. The complete 8,300,702-row filtered table is distributed as the 199.50 MB compressed uniprot_pid30_cov80_filtered_hits.tsv.gz Zenodo file; compact AFDB-confirmed tables are available directly from the atlas.

Network And Expression Resources

The directly available network files are the complete edge tables used by the Neighboring Network and CORGIAS Network interfaces. Larger supporting files are distributed through the Zenodo release:

• gene_coordinates_with_og.tsv, which underlies the neighborhood, operon, and neighboring-network analyses.
• CORGIAS_result.csv, the complete CORGIAS analysis output beyond the compact significant-edge table.
• SAR11_merged_metaT.tsv.gz contains gene-level quantification results for 509 Tara Oceans metatranscriptomic runs. Join its feature identifiers to the protein and orthogroup assignments, then sum TPM by sample and orthogroup, to reproduce the aggregate Expression Scores used by the Metatranscriptome Viewer.

All-vs-all ANI And AAI

fastani_SAR11_542.out is the original directional five-column FastANI v1.34 output: query genome, reference genome, ANI, matched fragments, and total query fragments. fastani_SAR11_542_symmetric_matrix.tsv is a 542 x 542 matrix derived from that output. Reciprocal ANI estimates are averaged when both directions are reported; a single reported direction is retained when its reciprocal comparison is absent; comparisons absent in both directions are shown as NA; and the diagonal is set to 100. Genome names in the matrix omit the .fna suffix.

comparem_aaiwf_SAR11_542_out_summary.tsv is the all-vs-all amino-acid identity summary generated with CompareM v0.1.2 aai_wf from the predicted proteins of the same 542 genomes. It reports the protein-coding gene counts for each genome, number of detected orthologs, mean and standard deviation of AAI, and orthologous fraction for each genome pair.

The ANI and AAI files are comparative-genome measurements and are not presented as a formal SAR11 species classification. The ANI matrix can be regenerated with build_fastani_matrix.R from the accompanying reproducibility-script package.

Distribution And Versioning

Small interactive tables are downloaded from the atlas repository. Large sequence collections, complete annotations, HMM profiles, CORGIAS output, UniProt similarity results, gene-coordinate data, and metatranscriptomic quantification are downloaded from Zenodo. The OrthoFinder assignment and resolved gene-tree archives currently remain direct atlas downloads.

Choosing A File

Use SAR11 Genome Information to inspect genome metadata before downloading genome resources. Use All OG List or OG Information Viewer to identify orthogroups before downloading assignments, annotations, trees, or HMM profiles.

Large collections are distributed as compressed, versioned archives. Check each archive's README, column definitions, software versions, and release identifier before combining it with results from another atlas release.
