+# Dataset for predicting Catalase phenotype from whole bacterial genomes (protein sequences)
+
+A dataset of over 1k bacterial genomes across species with the Catalase as label. Catalase 
+denotes whether a bacterium produces the catalase enzyme that breaks down hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) into water and oxygen, thereby protecting the cell from oxidative stress.
+Here, we provide binary Catalase labels, therefore the problem is a binary classification problem.
+
+The genome protein sequences have been extracted from GenBank. Each row contains a list of protein sequences present in the bacterial genome, ordered by their location on the chromosome and plasmids.
+
+The phenotypic traits have been extracted from [1].
+
+## Usage
+
+Please see the [Finetuning Bacformer for phenotypic traits prediction tutorial](https://github.com/macwiatrak/Bacformer/blob/main/tutorials/finetune_phenotypic_traits_prediction_tutorial.ipynb) 
+for an example on how to use the dataset.
