Abstract excerpt
The rapidly growing field of microbiome research presents a need for better methods of monitoring gut microbes in vivo with high spatial and temporal resolution. We report a method of tracking microbes in vivo within the gastrointestinal tract by programming them to incorporate nonstandard amino acids (NSAA) and labeling them via click chemistry. Using established machinery constituting an orthogonal translation...
