Metagenomic Characterization of the Human Intestinal Microbiota in Fecal Samples from STEC-Infected Patients
6 Feb 2018
Abstract excerpt
The human intestinal microbiota is a homeostatic ecosystem with a remarkable impact on human health and the disruption of this equilibrium leads to an increased susceptibility to infection by numerous pathogens. In this study, we used shotgun metagenomic sequencing and two different bioinformatics approaches, based on mapping of the reads onto databases and on the reconstruction of putative draft genomes, to...
