Metagenomics and antibiotics [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2012
Most of the bacterial species that form part of the biosphere have never been cultivated. In this situation, a comprehensive study of bacterial communities requires the utilization of non-culture-based methods, which have been named metagenomics.

Study of Wetland Soils of the Salar de Atacama with Different Azonal Vegetative Formations Reveals Changes in the Microbiota Associated with Hygrophile Plant Type on the Soil Surface

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Salar de Atacama is located approximately 55 km south of San Pedro de Atacama in the Antofagasta region, Chile. The high UV irradiation and salt concentration and extreme drought make Salar de Atacama an ideal site to search for novel soil microorganisms

NLP-based-classification-of-metagenomics-tools

open access: yes, 2022
We used machine learning methods to develop a metagenomics tool classification system based on their text description extracted from published papers. The users will quickly and efficiently filter tools of 13 different categories by identifying the tool ...

Characterisation of three novel α-L-arabinofuranosidases from a compost metagenome

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2019
Background The importance of the accessory enzymes such as α-L-arabinofuranosidases (AFases) in synergistic interactions within cellulolytic mixtures has introduced a paradigm shift in the search for hydrolytic enzymes.

A Primer on Metagenomics

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2010
Metagenomics is a discipline that enables the genomic study of uncultured microorganisms. Faster, cheaper sequencing technologies and the ability to sequence uncultured microbes sampled directly from their habitats are expanding and transforming our view of the microbial world.

Metagenomic Thermometer

open access: yesDNA Research, 2022
Abstract Various 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 ...

Gut microbiota shifts favorably with delivery of handwashing with soap and water treatment intervention in a prospective cohort (CHoBI7 trial)

open access: yesJournal of Health, Population and Nutrition, 2023
Background Cholera can result in the expulsion of important microbiota from the gut and result in death if left untreated. The disease transmits mainly via drinking water carrying Vibrio cholerae; and household contacts (HHC) of cholera patients are at ...
