This study shows that protein malnutrition in mice increases susceptibility to intestinal colonization by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae, likely through reduced secondary bile acids.

The paper characterizes the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of gut microbiomes colonized by carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) using longitudinal metagenomics and whole genome sequencing.

This paper introduces a hybrid metagenomic assembler that improves assembly quality and enables high-resolution analysis of resistance determinants and mobile elements in the human gut microbiome.
