Characterization of intestinal microbial communities by 16S rDNA sequencing in Vamp8KO mice
We sought to understand the changes in microbial communities in Vamp8KO mice that lack the secretion machinery to release mucin from intestinal goblet cells. We collected fecal samples from Vamp8+/+, Vamp8+/- and Vamp8-/- littermate mice between 8-10 weeks of age and processed for rDNA sequencing using the V3 region.
