The Effect of Diet on the Human Gut Microbiome: A Metagenomic Analysis in Humanized Gnotobiotic Mice

A translational medicine pipeline is described where human gut microbial communities and diets are re-created in gnotobiotic mice and the impact on microbe and host is defined u...

Global patterns of 16S rRNA diversity at a depth of millions of sequences per sample

The ongoing revolution in high-throughput sequencing continues to democratize the ability of small groups of investigators to map the microbial component of the biosphere. In pa...

Xenobiotics Shape the Physiology and Gene Expression of the Active Human Gut Microbiome

Evolution of Mammals and Their Gut Microbes

Mammals are metagenomic in that they are composed of not only their own gene complements but also those of all of their associated microbes. To understand the coevolution of the...

Organismal, genetic, and transcriptional variation in the deeply sequenced gut microbiomes of identical twins

We deeply sampled the organismal, genetic, and transcriptional diversity in fecal samples collected from a monozygotic (MZ) twin pair and compared the results to 1,095 communiti...
