Comparative Analysis of Primers Used for 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing in Oral Microbiome Studies
6 Aug 2023
Abstract excerpt
Recent advances in genomic technologies have enabled more in-depth study of the oral microbiome. In this study, we compared the amplicons generated by primers targeting different sites of the 16S rRNA gene found in the Human Oral Microbiome Database (HOMD). Six sets of primer targeting V1–V2, V1–V3, V3–V4, V4–V5, V5–V7 and V6–V8 regions of 16S rRNA were tested via in silico simulation. Primers targeting the...
