Clinical metagenomics. [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Genetics, 2019
Clinical metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS), the comprehensive analysis of microbial and host genetic material (DNA and RNA) in samples from patients, is rapidly moving from research to clinical laboratories. This emerging approach is changing

Metagenomic Thermometer

open access: yesDNA Research, 2022
AbstractVarious microorganisms exist in environments, and each of which has an optimal growth temperature (OGT). The relationship between genomic information and OGT of each species has long been studied, and one such study revealed that OGT of prokaryotes can be accurately predicted based on the fraction of seven amino acids (IVYWREL) among all ...

Unbiased taxonomic annotation of metagenomic samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The classification of reads from a metagenomic sample using a reference taxonomy is usually based on first mapping the reads to the reference sequences and then, classifying each read at a node under the lowest common ancestor of the candidate sequences ...

Spaced seeds improve k-mer-based metagenomic classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Metagenomics is a powerful approach to study genetic content of environmental samples that has been strongly promoted by NGS technologies. To cope with massive data involved in modern metagenomic projects, recent tools [4, 39] rely on the analysis of k ...

Specialized bacteriome uncovered in the coralloid roots of the epiphytic gymnosperm, Zamia pseudoparasitica

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, 2020
Epiphytes face several constraints regarding nutrient acquisition: They are disconnected from soil minerals and they have to mainly rely on nutrients leached by precipitation and microbes.

A glance at the gut microbiota and the functional roles of the microbes based on marmot fecal samples

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Research on the gut microbiota, which involves a large and complex microbial community, is an important part of infectious disease control. In China, few studies have been reported on the diversity of the gut microbiota of wild marmots.
