Gut microbiome 2 from Western diet fed mouse
Total community DNA was isolated from the cecal contents of Western diet fed wild-type C57BL/6J mouse.  Mice with obesity produced by consumption of a high-fat/high-sugar Western diet develop a bloom of an uncultured distal gut bacterial lineage. Comparative metagenomic studies of this community provides information about this organism's niche, and emphasize how diet and the gut bacterial community are interrelated variables in the energy balance equation.  <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?holding=&db=Nucleotide&cmd=search&term=EU503541:EU512027[accn]">EU503541-EU512027 </a>are the 16S ribosomal RNA sequences associated with this study.
