A Metagenomic Meta-analysis Reveals Functional Signatures of Health and Disease in the Human Gut Microbiome

Abstract excerpt

The composition of the gut microbiome associates with a wide range of human diseases, but the mechanisms underpinning these associations are not well understood. To shift toward a mechanistic understanding, we integrated distinct metagenomic data sets to identify functions encoded in the gut microbiome that associate with multiple diseases, which may be important to human health. Additionally, we identified...
