Single-cell metatranscriptomics in the human gut microbiota KU Leuven
Metagenomic and 16S amplicon sequencing have unveiled variation in the taxonomic composition of the gut microbiota in health and disease. Nevertheless, accumulating evidence highlights the role of community functionality, rather than composition, in determining host health outcomes. Accordingly, metatranscriptomics has been applied to profile the functional activity of gut microbial communities. However, this technique cannot elucidate ...
