The paper shows that E. faecalis evolves to metabolize fructoselysine, reducing S. Typhimurium colonization by limiting a key nutrient.

This study evaluates 16S rRNA gene-based functional prediction tools using simulated and metagenomic data, finding they lack sensitivity to detect health-related microbiome functional changes.

Namco provides a user-friendly R Shiny application for comprehensive microbiome analysis, covering data processing to complex tasks like machine learning and network analysis.
