Project description:This study investigates temporal dynamics in microbial community function within the freshwater ecosystem of Lake Zurich, Switzerland, over three months (36 timepoints). Metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) and metaproteomes were analyzed to identify species-specific and community-level protein expression patterns. The study explores how bacterial species contribute to ecosystem functioning through protein-level activity, focusing on relationships between species taxonomy, abundance, and protein investment patterns.
Project description:Freshwater microbial communities from Lake Mendota, Crystal Bog Lake, and Trout Bog Lake in Wisconsin, United States - time-series metagenomes
Project description:Global endemic infections, such as leptospirosis, rickettsial diseases, and dengue infections present diagnostic challenges, posing a dilemma for antibiotic stewardship worldwide. The goal of this project was to identify accurate transcriptional classifiers able to discriminate between bacterial and viral illness of global pathogens.
