Insights from Bacteroidales collection Analysis of large human gut Bacteroidales culture collection reveals extensive strain-level genomic & metabolomic diversity & inter-species DNA transfer & strain evolution in human gut Comstock lab UChicago Department of Microbiology cell.com/cell-host-micr…


🗞️ #MVIF NEWS Zhenrun Jerry Zhang's #microbiome work is now published in Cell Host & Microbe: cell.com/cell-host-micr… Zhenrun presented these findings at #MVIF #28: youtube.com/watch?v=u66caT…

1/ Pleased to share a preprint of our latest work “Gut Bacteria Metabolize Natural and Synthetic Steroid Hormones via the Reductive OsrABC Pathway” led by Kaylie Scorza and Chris J! See the rest of this thread for a summary of our findings. doi.org/10.1101/2024.1…

Protection against C. diff by avirulent strain: Qiwen Dong show avirulent C. difficile isolate ST1-75 outcompetes virulent C. difficile to protect mice from colitis, likely by depleting amino acids. ST1-75 has biotherapeutic potential for recurrent CDI cell.com/cell-host-micr…


My lab at Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth has an open postdoc position in fungal metabolomics. We will combine isotope tracing, mass spectrometry data analysis, and mathematical modeling to understand metabolic rewiring in fungal cells. Research question depends on your interest. Please RT and apply!


🚨NEW PAPER ALERT🚨Excited that the work from my PhD at the Quadram Institute NarbadLab is now published in the Microbiology Society journal. The nisin O biosynthetic gene cluster lacks a leader-peptide cleaving protease but is distributed across gut-associated genera. microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…
