MWAS (microbiome-wide association study) package is a R-based toolbox for microbiome study, developped by the members of the Knights Lab at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. It provides three main functional modules: learning a predictve model, predicting an unknown microbiome data, and visualization of different results. The latest update is version 0.9.3 (03-2015).
MWAS is developed in R, however, it also provides a Unix command-line interface as a simplified application for those who are not familliar with R.

-
Use the following command to set
MWAS_DIR
in the Terminal (or an equivalent command window;/MWAS_directory
should be your actual directory):
echo "export MWAS_DIR=$HOME/MWAS_directory" >> ~/.bash_profile
-
You might need to install dependencies seperately, if it cannot install or load the required packages. Most of the dependencies would be installed when running the corresponding function commands, except one pacakge
optparse
. Follow the steps below to install this package:- Open R Console in Terminal (or use RStudio)
- Install the pacakge:
install.packages("optparse")
- You should be able to use the MWAS functions now.
