An iterative workflow for mining the human intestinal metaproteome [PDF]
Background Peptide spectrum matching (PSM) is the standard method in shotgun proteomics data analysis. It relies on the availability of an accurate and complete sample proteome that is used to make interpretation of the spectra feasible.

Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis and microbiome profile of patients in a referral gastrointestinal diseases centre in the Sudan [PDF]
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) causes Johne’s disease in animals with zoonotic potential; it has been linked to many chronic diseases in humans, especially gastrointestinal diseases (GID). MAP has been extensively studied in Europe and

An investigation of a Mollicute-like organism inhabiting the human gastrointestinal tract [PDF]
The microflora inhabiting the human gastrointestinal tract can be considered an essential 'metabolic organ', in a symbiotic relationship with its host. Due to the low cultivability and inappropriate sampling methodology the microflora is poorly explored ...

Prebiotics and the poultry gastrointestinal tract microbiome
Feed additives that can modulate the poultry gastrointestinal tract and provide benefit to bird performance and health have recently received more interest for commercial applications. Such feed supplements offer an economic advantage because they may directly benefit poultry producers by either decreasing mortality rates of farm animals, increasing ...

The rest of the story: the microbiome and gastrointestinal infections [PDF]
Bacterial infectious diseases are studied primarily as a host-pathogen dyad. However it is increasingly apparent that the gut microbial community is an important participant in these interactions. The gut microbiota influences bacterial infections in a number of ways, including via bacterial metabolism, stimulation of host immunity and direct bacterial
