Rapid evolution of the human gut virome [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013 Humans are colonized by immense populations of viruses, which metagenomic analysis shows are mostly unique to each individual. To investigate the origin and evolution of the human gut virome, we analyzed the viral community of one adult individual over 2.5 y by extremely deep metagenomic sequencing (56 billion bases of purified viral ...

Metagenomic-based characterization of the gut virome in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 BackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex disease that afflicts women of reproductive age, and its pathological mechanism has not been well explained. The gut microbiota is believed to be closely related to the development of PCOS. Although

Molecular bases and role of viruses in the human microbiome. [PDF]
, 2014 Viruses are dependent biological entities that interact with the genetic material of most cells on the planet, including the trillions within the human microbiome.

The human gut virome database [PDF]
, 2019 ABSTRACTThe gut microbiome profoundly impacts human health and disease, but viruses that infect these microbes are likely also important. Problematically, viral sequences are often missed due to insufficient reference viral genomes. Here we (i) built a human gut virome database, GVD, from 648 viral particle metagenomes or microbial metagenomes from 572

Hypervariable loci in the human gut virome [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012 Genetic variation is critical in microbial immune evasion and drug resistance, but variation has rarely been studied in complex heterogeneous communities such as the human microbiome. To begin to study natural variation, we analyzed DNA viruses present in the lower gastrointestinal tract of 12 human volunteers by determining 48 billion bases of viral ...

A Role for the Intestinal Microbiota and Virome in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)? [PDF]
, 2016 Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a heterogeneous disorder of significant societal impact that is proposed to involve both host and environmentally derived aetiologies that may be autoimmune in nature. Immune-related symptoms

Characterization of bacteriophage communities and CRISPR profiles from dental plaque. [PDF]
, 2014 BackgroundDental plaque is home to a diverse and complex community of bacteria, but has generally been believed to be inhabited by relatively few viruses.

Viral metagenomics of the gut virome of diarrheal children with Rotavirus A infection
Gut Microbes, 2023 Diarrhea is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in children worldwide and represents a major dysbiosis event. Rotavirus has been recognized as a global leading pathogen of diarrhea.

Amniotic fluid from healthy term pregnancies does not harbor a detectable microbial community [PDF]
, 2018 Recent studies have conflicting data regarding the presence of intra-amniotic microbiota. Viral communities are increasingly recognized as important although overlooked components of the human microbiota.
