BacCorpus Protein 90: Bacterial Protein Sequences Clustered at 90% Identity

BacCorpus Protein 90 is a large-scale, sequence-level clustered dataset of bacterial protein sequences. It contains representative protein sequences clustered at 90% sequence identity and 90% coverage, derived from a uniformly processed bacterial genome resource spanning millions of quality-controlled isolate and metagenome-assembled genomes. The dataset was created by AllTheBacteria and was last updated on 2026-05-08.

Use Cases

• Training protein language models based on large-scale bacterial sequence data.
• Evaluating sequence similarity and clustering algorithms based on the 90% identity threshold.
• Studying bacterial protein diversity and function across isolate and metagenome-assembled genomes.

Strengths

• Clustered at a defined 90% sequence identity and 90% coverage threshold.
• Derived from a resource spanning millions of quality-controlled bacterial genomes.
• Intended for training and evaluating protein language models, indicating a specific use case.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and total data size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update was 2026-05-08.
