ABSTRACT: Metagenomes of intestinal samples were obtained from wild type mice to determine the functional and taxonomic coverage by available cultivable bacteria isolated from mouse.
Project description:The mouse intestinal bacterial collection (miBC) represents a unique resource of cultivable bacteria isolates from mice that enables engineering of minimal gut consortia.
Project description:Functional profiles predicted based on taxonomic affiliations differed from those obtained by GeoChip microarray analysis, which separated community functional capacity based on plant location. The identified metabolic pathways provided insight regarding microbial strategies for colonization and survival in these ecosystems. Sixteen samples analyzed.
