Human small intestine 454 pyrosequencing data from 16S rRNA (gene) based ecological survey
In this study we applied an integrated approach that combined microbial profiling by pyrosequencing the 16S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) content of 4 ileostoma subjects at four time points to elucidate the small intestinal microbiota dynamics at the level of population composition as well as its specific activity pattern.
