Congratulations to @fullam.bsky.social @vishnuprasoodanan.bsky.social & @biocs.bsky.social !
See the thread below for more details.
We just released a @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social describing the *microntology*, a lightweight controlled vocabulary that we have been using for a while to tag metagenomes with contextual data.

Happy and grateful to have contributed to this work. Excited to share a new publication from the Sebastian Group at APC Microbiome Ireland. Many thanks to @tsbschm.bsky.social for the guidance and continued support. Congratulations to all co-authors
🚀 Excited to be part of this study! 🧪
Our research shows that a milk-derived peptide✨ can boost intestinal mucus function even with low fiber intake 🌾⬇️ — opening the door to a potential new prebiotic 🌱 for supporting gut health 💪🩺.
Our latest work is now online!
Explored how obesogenic diets, obesity, and key experimental factors (mouse vendor, sex, microbiota) influence intestinal antimicrobial peptide (AMP) expression
We hope many of you will find it useful, and will continue to add data. Here's the preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... - hopefully coming soon to a NAR Database Issue near you 😅 Thanks to everyone in the @borklab.bsky.social @embl.org who contributed to this! 7/7
There is a lot of undescribed prokaryotic diversity in existing whole-genome metagenomic data!

Summary. We introduce microntology v1.0, a pragmatic controlled vocabulary of 148 terms to describe microbial habitats and lifestyles, and provide manually curated microntology annotations for >300k m...
Cataloguing Earth's biodiversity remains one of the most formidable challenges in biology, and the greatest diversity is expected to reside among the smallest organisms: microbes. Yet the ongoing cens...
AbstractMotivation. Data-enabled studies of microbial ecology and evolution depend on high-quality descriptions of microbial habitats, based on curated and
A clearer way to describe microbial habitats helps researchers compare #microbiome data.

Metagenomic sequencing enables the in-depth study of microbes and their functions in humans, animals and the environment. While sequencing data is deposited in public databases, the associated context...
Most microbial diversity is still missing from genome catalogues.
A new paper in @natmicrobiol.nature.com analysed 92,187 metagenomes and found that most discoverable bacterial and archaeal lineages sit in unbinned contigs.

Re-analysis of over 92,000 metagenomes reveals hundreds of thousands of previously undescribed Bacterial and Archaeal clades hidden in plain sight.
We just released a @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social describing the *microntology*, a lightweight controlled vocabulary that we have been using for a while to tag metagenomes with contextual data.
