Causal role of gut Bacteroides in susceptibility to severe malaria
Shotgun metagenomics reads deposited here are from the C57BL/6 mice from Charles River Laboratories from an isolated barrier unit (IBU R01). Mice were treated with vancomycin in drinking water for 14 days or left untreated. Ceca content was pooled from five mice from each group and plated with serial dilution on Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar anaerobically for 48 hours at 37C. Bacteria were harvested, DNA extraction was performed, and sent for sequencing.
