Gut metatranscriptome–virome profiling reveals active antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) encoded in plasmids and phages linked to human diseases
2025-07-25
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p> Microbe-derived antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) play a crucial role in shaping the microbiota composition; however, their contribution to disease-associated dysbiosis remains poorly understood. Here, we assembled fecal metatranscriptomes from individuals with normal weight, obesity, and obesity plus metabolic syndrome, yielding 51,087 non-human transcripts. We screened 1,095 small open...
