Human salivary amylase gene copy number impacts oral and gut microbiomes

2018-06-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Host genetic variation influences the composition of the human microbiome. While studies have focused on associations between the microbiome and single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes, their copy number (CN) can also vary. Here, in a study of human subjects including a 2-week standard diet, we relate oral and gut microbiome to CN at the AMY1 locus, which encodes the gene for salivary amylase,...
