HoloFoodR
is a package designed to ease access to the
EBI’s HoloFoodR resource,
allowing searching and retrieval of multiple datasets for downstream
analysis.
The HoloFood database does not encompass metagenomics data; however, such data is stored within the MGnify database. Both packages offer analogous functionalities, streamlining the integration of data and enhancing accessibility.
HoloFoodR
is hosted on Bioconductor, and can be
installed using via BiocManager
.
Once installed, HoloFoodR
is made available in the usual
way.

HoloFoodR
offers three functions doQuery()
,
getResult()
and getData()
which can be
utilized to search and fetch data from HoloFood database.
In this tutorial, we demonstrate how to search animals, subset
animals based on whether they have specific sample type, and finally
fetch the data on samples. Note that this same can be done with
doQuery()
and getResult()
(or
getData()
and getResult()
) only by utilizing
query filters. This tutorial is for demonstrating the functionality of
the package.
Additionally, the package includes getMetaboLights()
function which can be utilized to retrieve metabolomic data from
MetaboLights database.
To search animals, genome catalogues, samples or viral catalogues,
you can use doQuery()
function. You can also use
getData()
but doQuery()
is optimized for
searching these datatypes. For example, instead of nested list of sample
types doQuery()
returns sample types as presence/absence
table which is more convenient.
Here we search animals, and subset them based on whether they include histological samples. Note that this same can be done also by using query filters.
animals <- doQuery("animals", max.hits = 100)
animals <- animals[ animals[["histological"]], ]
colnames(animals) |> head()
#> [1] "accession" "system" "canonical_url"
#> [4] "histological" "host_genomic" "inflammatory_markers"
doQuery()
returns a data.frame
including
information on type of data being searched.
Now we have information on which animal has histological samples. Let’s get data on those animals to know the sample IDs to fetch.
The returned value of getData()
function is a
list
. We can have the data also as a
data.frame
when we specify flatten = TRUE
. The
data has information on animals including samples that have been drawn
from them.
samples <- animal_data[["samples"]]
colnames(samples) |> head()
#> [1] "accession" "title" "sample_type" "animal"
#> [5] "canonical_url" "metagenomics_url"
The elements of the list
are data.frames
.
For example, “samples” table contains information on samples drawn from
animals that were specified in input.
Now we can collect sample IDs.
To get data on samples, we can utilize getResult()
function. It returns the data in MultiAssayExperiment
(MAE
) format.
mae <- getResult(sample_ids)
#> Warning: Data for the following samples cannot be found. The sample types are metagenomic_assembly, host_genomic, transcriptomic and metatranscriptomic. (Note that metagenomic assemblies can be found from the MGnify database. See MGnifyR package.):

MGnifyR
is a package that can be utilized to fetch
metagenomics data from MGnify database. From the MGnifyR
package, we can use MGnifyR::searchAnalysis()
function to
search analyses based on sample IDs that we have.
library(MGnifyR)
mg <- MgnifyClient(useCache = TRUE)
# Get those samples that are metagenomic samples
metagenomic_samples <- samples[
samples[["sample_type"]] == "metagenomic_assembly", ]
# Get analysis IDs based on sample IDs
analysis_ids <- searchAnalysis(
mg, type = "samples", metagenomic_samples[["accession"]])
head(analysis_ids)
#> SAMEA10130025 SAMEA7697591 SAMEA10130091 SAMEA7571845 SAMEA10158030

#> SAMEA7697592
#> "MGYA00615947"
Then we can fetch data based on accession IDs.

#> *Format() - convert into a long or wide DataFrame
#> assays() - convert ExperimentList to a SimpleList of matrices
#> exportClass() - save data to flat files
MGnifyR::getResult()
returns MAE
object
just like HoloFoodR
. However, metagenomic data points to
individual analyses instead of samples. We can harmonize the data by
replacing analysis IDs with sample IDs, and then we can combine the data
to single MAE
.
# Get experiments from metagenomic data
exps <- experiments(mae_metagenomic)
# Convert analysis names to sample names
exps <- lapply(exps, function(x){
# Get corresponding sample ID
sample_id <- names(analysis_ids)[ match(colnames(x), analysis_ids) ]
# Replace analysis ID with sample ID
colnames(x) <- sample_id
return(x)
})
# Add to original MultiAssayExperiment
mae <- c(experiments(mae), exps)
mae
Now, with the MAE
object linking samples from various
omics together, compatibility is ensured as the single omics datasets
are in (Tree)SummarizedExperiment
format. This
compatibility allows us to harness cutting-edge downstream analytics
tools like miaverse
framework that support these data containers seamlessly.
The HoloFood database exclusively contains targeted metabolomic data.
However, it provides URL addresses linking to the MetaboLights database,
where untargeted metabolomics data can be accessed. To retrieve this
data, you can utilize the getMetaboLights() function to retrieve
information on available data. Moreover, it returns processed
metabolomic data (for processed data, you can also use
getReturn(x, get.metabolomic=TRUE)
). Below, we retrieve all
the metabolomic data associated with HoloFood.
# Get untargeted metabolomic samples
samples <- doQuery("samples", sample_type = "metabolomic")
# Get the data
metabolomic <- getMetaboLights(samples[["metabolomics_url"]])
# Show names of data.frames
names(metabolomic)
The result is a list that includes three data.frames:
- study metadata
- assay metadata
- assay that includes abundance table and feature metadata
For spectra data, you can either fetch files using
getMetaboLightsFile()
, or follow this vignette
for guidance on loading data directly into an object, which is tailored
for metabolomics spectra data.
