Horizontal gene transfer after faecal microbiota transplantation in adolescents with obesity

2023-10-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) describes the transmission of DNA outside of direct ancestral lineages. The process is best characterised within the bacterial kingdom and can enable the acquisition of genetic traits that support bacterial adaptation to novel niches. The adaptation of bacteria to novel niches has particular relevance for faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), a therapeutic pr...
