Piphillin: Improved Prediction of Metagenomic Content by Direct Inference from Human Microbiomes

7 Nov 2016

Abstract excerpt

Functional analysis of a clinical microbiome facilitates the elucidation of mechanisms by which microbiome perturbation can cause a phenotypic change in the patient. The direct approach for the analysis of the functional capacity of the microbiome is via shotgun metagenomics. An inexpensive method to estimate the functional capacity of a microbial community is through collecting 16S rRNA gene profiles then...
