Project description:Methyltransferase MRM2 methylates the 2’-hydroxyl group of ribonucleotide U1369 of human 16S mt-rRNA. Mutations in MRM2 have been implicated in human mitochondrial-related disease. This study investigates the role of MRM2 in the biogenesis and function of human mitochondrial ribosomes. Absence of MRM2 leads to a severe defect in mitochondrial translation, with the mtLSU being trapped in immature assembly states.
Project description:Gut microbiota were assessed in 540 colonoscopy-screened adults by 16S rRNA gene sequencing of stool samples. Investigators compared gut microbiota diversity, overall composition, and normalized taxon abundance among these groups.
Project description:To determine microbiota composition associated with loss of KDM5 in intestine, we carried out 16S rRNA seq analyses of dissected intestine from wildtype and kdm5 mutant. [GSM2628181-GSM2628190]. A total of 78 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There were about 15 genera much less abundant in kdm5 mutant compared to wildtype. The kdm5 mutant were sensitive to pathogen. To confirm the microbiota associated with loss of KDM5 in intestine, 16S rRNA of new flies were sequenced and analyzed by Majorbio Bio-Pharm Technology Co. Ltd. (Shanghai, China) [GSM3243472-GSM3243481]. A total of 107 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There were about 20 genera much less abundant in kdm5 mutant compared to wildtype. To confirm the microbiota associated with loss of KDM5 drosophila feeding with Lactobacillus plantarum, 16S rRNA of kdm5 mutant flies were sequenced and analyzed by Novogene Bioinformatics Technology Co., Ltd. (Tianjin, China) [GSM3263522-GSM3263527]. A total of 92 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. To confirm the microbiota associated with KDM5 knockdown in intestine, 16S rRNA of Myo1A-Gal4TS/+ and Myo1A-Gal4TS/+;+/kdm5RNAi flies were sequenced and analyzed by Biomarker Co. Ltd. (Beijing, China). [GSM3507915-GSM3507924]. A total of 50 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There was a significant different based on the genus level between two groups.
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:16S-V4 rRNA gene sequence data for intestinal biopsies from NCT02749630 trial participants. Biopsies from patients were collected at screening, day 30, and day 85 and prepared for 16SV4 rRNA gene sequencing.
