16S rRNA of Mus musculus: colon
The gut microbiota along the entire intestinal tract in mice was profiled to explore the possibility that known producers of pro-inflammatory type endotoxin molecules are present. The bacterial communities were profiled using the Illumina 16S Metagenomic Sequencing Library Preparation Workflow,sequencing libraries were constructed from the V3 and V4 hypervariable regions of the 16S rRNA gene on the Illumina MiSeq platform.
