Cayman (Carbohydrate active enzymes profiling of metagenomes) is a command-line profiling tool for profiling CAZyme abundances in metagenomic datasets. It takes as input (preferably) cleaned -- quality-filtered and host-filtered -- metagenomic shotgun reads and produces a matrix of CAZyme
Reads-Per-Kilobase-Million (RPKM) abundances for your sample. Cayman makes heavy use of the functional profiling library [`gqlib`](https://github.com/cschu/gqlib).
