Profiling Fusobacterium infection at high taxonomic resolution reveals lineage-specific correlations in colorectal cancer
9 Jun 2022
Abstract excerpt
The bacterial genus Fusobacterium promotes colorectal cancer (CRC) development, but an understanding of its precise composition at the species level in the human gut and the relevant association with CRC is lacking. Herein, we devise a Fusobacterium rpoB amplicon sequencing (FrpoB-seq) method that enables the differentiation of Fusobacterium species and certain subspecies in the microbiota. By applying this...
