Representative genomes (MAGs) of the Mouse Gastrointestinal Bacteria Catalogue
Mouse models are essential for biomedical science and drug discovery, yet it is not known how the bacteria in the mouse microbiota – important determinants of phenotypes of health and disease – affect their relevance to human disease. To interrogate the taxonomic and functional differences between the human and mouse gut microbiotas, we developed the Mouse Gastrointestinal Bacteria Catalogue (MGBC). This project contains the genome assemblies for the representative genomes (MAGs) of the MGBC.
