The paper identifies rare IAA-producing gut bacteria and links IAA synthesis to OFOR-driven amino acid oxidation in acetogens.

IsoPairFinder identifies metabolic pathway intermediates by analyzing isotope-labeled and unlabeled metabolomics data from gene-edited microbes.

The paper identifies a novel 2,8-dioxopurine pathway in gut bacteria that degrades purines, revealing a host-microbe symbiosis with therapeutic implications for hyperuricemia and gout.

This study systematically profiles primary metabolic genes in the human gut microbiota, revealing pathway differences among phyla and showing limited correlation between gene abundance and metabolite levels in plasma.
