Dynamics and Determinants of the Gut Mobilome in Early Life
2024-09-07
Abstract excerpt
As mobile genetic elements (MGE) are critical yet understudied determinants of gut microbiome composition, we characterized the gut virome and plasmidome in 195 samples from 28 mother–infant dyads delivered by caesarean section. Infant mobilome increased in richness over the first 6 postnatal weeks, demonstrating high individual-specificity and temporal stability, establishing a personal persistent mobilome. Formu...
