Project description:Here we report a direct tRNA sequencing protocol and software to simultaneously examine the composition and biological activity of naturally occurring microbial communities. Our analysis of mouse gut microbiome with tRNA-seq and 16S ribosomal RNA gene amplicons revealed comparable microbial community structures, and additional physiological insights into the microbiome through tRNA abundance and modifications.
Project description:The objectives of this study were to establish a microbiome profile for oral epithelial dysplasia using archival lesion swab samples to characterize the community variations and the functional potential of the microbiome using 16S rRNA gene sequencing
Project description:The impact of mono-chronic S. stercoralis infection on the gut microbiome and microbial activities in infected participants was explored. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing of a longitudinal study with 2 sets of human fecal was investigated. Set A, 42 samples were matched, and divided equally into positive (Pos) and negative (Neg) for S. stercoralis diagnoses. Set B, 20 samples of the same participant in before (Ss+PreT) and after (Ss+PostT) treatment was subjected for 16S rRNA sequences and LC-MS/MS to explore the effect of anti-helminthic treatment on microbiome proteomes.
Project description:Characteization host-microbiome interactions in patients with allergic (model: atopic dermatitis) and autoimmune (model: psoriasis) diseases by integration of microarray transcriptome data with 16S microbial profiling. 6mm punch biopsies were collected from the skin of atopic dermatitis and psoriasis patients alongside healthy volunteers, and subjected to analysis using Affymetrix Human Gene ST 2.1 arrays.
