 # Mikado - pick your transcript: a pipeline to determine and select the best RNA-Seq prediction
 
-Mikado is a lightweight Python3 pipeline to identify the most useful or “best” set of transcripts from multiple transcript assemblies. Our approach leverages transcript assemblies generated by multiple methods to define expressed loci, assign a representative transcript and return a set of gene models that selects against transcripts that are chimeric, fragmented or with short or disrupted CDS. Loci are first defined based on overlap criteria and each transcript therein is scored based on up to 50 available metrics relating to ORF and cDNA size, relative position of the ORF within the transcript,  UTR length and presence of multiple ORFs. Mikado can also utilize blast data to score transcripts based on proteins similarity and to identify and split chimeric transcripts. Optionally, junction confidence data as provided by [Portcullis] can be used to improve the assessment. The best-scoring transcripts are selected as the primary transcripts of their respective gene loci; additionally, Mikado can bring back other valid splice variants that are compatible with the primary isoform.

-Mikado uses GTF or GFF files as mandatory input. Non-mandatory but highly recommended input data can be generated by obtaining a set of reliable splicing junctions with Portcullis_, by locating coding ORFs on the transcripts using either [Transdecoder] or [Prodigal], and by obtaining homology information through either [BLASTX][Blast+] or [DIAMOND].

 Our approach is amenable to include sequences generated by *de novo* Illumina assemblers or reads generated from long read technologies such as Pacbio.

 ## Installation
 
-Mikado can be installed from PyPI with pip:
+Using mamba
 
-```pip3 install mikado```
+download mamba using pip
+
+```bash
+pip install mamba=0.27.0
+```
+
+Create a mamba environment using the environment.yml file
+
+```bash
+mamba env create -f environment.yml
+conda activate mikado2
+```
+
+Check and run mikado
+
+```bash
+mikado --help
+```
+
+
+
+Mikado can also be be installed from PyPI with pip (**deprecated**):
+
+``pip3 install mikado``
 
 Alternatively, you can clone the repository from source and install with:
 
     pip wheel -w dist .
-    pip install dist/*whl    
-    
+    pip install dist/*whl
+
 You can verify the correctness of the installation with the unit tests (*outside of the source folder*, as otherwise Python will get confused and try to use the `Mikado` source folder instead of the system installation):
 
     python -c "import Mikado; Mikado.test(); Mikado.test(label='slow')"

 ### Additional dependencies
 
 Mikado by itself does require only the presence of a database solution, such as SQLite (although we do support MySQL and PostGRESQL as well).
-However, the Daijin pipeline requires additional programs to run. 
+However, the Daijin pipeline requires additional programs to run.
 
 For driving Mikado through Daijin, the following programs are required:
 
-- [DIAMOND] or [Blast+] to provide protein homology. DIAMOND is preferred for its speed. 
-- [Prodigal] or [Transdecoder] to calculate ORFs. The versions of Transdecoder that we tested scale poorly in terms of runtime and disk usage, depending on the size of the input dataset. Prodigal is much faster and lighter, however, the data on our paper has been generated through Transdecoder - not Prodigal. Currently we set Prodigal as default.
-- Mikado also makes use of a dataset of RNA-Seq high-quality junctions. We are using [Portcullis] to calculate this data alongside the alignments and assemblies.

 ## Development guide
 
 We provide source trail files ([https://www.sourcetrail.com/](https://www.sourcetrail.com/)) to aid in development.
 As required by the SourceTrail application, these files are present in the master directory, as "Mikado.srctrl*".
