Metagenome or environmental sample from SIHUMIx
synthetic metagenome
Metatranscriptome sequencing of the extended simplified human intestinal microbiota (SIHUMIx), consisting of eight bacterial species, namely Anaerostipes caccae (DSMZ 14662), Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (DSMZ 2079), Bifidobacterium longum (NCC 2705), Blautia producta (DSMZ 2950), Clostridium butyricum (DSMZ 10702), Clostridium ramosum (DSMZ 1402), Escherichia coli K-12 (MG1655) and Lactobacillus plantarum (DSMZ 20174) cultivated in bioreactors under anaerobic conditions. The metatranscriptome provides information on the functional interaction of the bacterial community and also supports the identification of novel small proteins.
