DADA2: High-resolution sample inference from Illumina amplicon data

TLDR
The open-source software package DADA2 for modeling and correcting Illumina-sequenced amplicon errors is presented, revealing a diversity of previously undetected Lactobacillus crispatus variants.
Abstract
We present the open-source software package DADA2 for modeling and correcting Illumina-sequenced amplicon errors (https://github.com/benjjneb/dada2). DADA2 infers sample sequences exactly and resolves differences of as little as 1 nucleotide. In several mock communities, DADA2 identified more real variants and output fewer spurious sequences than other methods. We applied DADA2 to vaginal samples from a cohort of pregnant women, revealing a diversity of previously undetected Lactobacillus crispatus variants.

CRISPR RNA-guided integrases for high-efficiency, multiplexed bacterial genome engineering.

TL;DR: A substantially improved version of the Tn7-like transposon from Vibrio cholerae is introduced, which uses a Type I-F CRISPR-Cas system for programmable, RNA-guided transposition and establishes INTEGRATE as a versatile tool for multiplexed, kilobase-scale genome engineering.

VALENCIA: a nearest centroid classification method for vaginal microbial communities based on composition.

TL;DR: VALENCIA provides a much-needed solution for the robust and reproducible assignment of vaginal community state types and validated the broad applicability of VALENCIA for the classification of vaginal microbial communities by using it to classify three test datasets.

Stool Microbiota at Neutrophil Recovery Is Predictive for Severe Acute Graft vs Host Disease After Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation.

TL;DR: Low alpha diversity in stool microbiota at neutrophil recovery associates with increased severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), greater abundance of oral Actinobacteria or Firmicutes, and decreased abundance of intestinal Lachnospiraceae in stool bacteria at neutrophic recovery associated with increase severe GVHD.

Biogeography of the Oral Microbiome: The Site-Specialist Hypothesis.

TL;DR: The literature supports the idea that most oral microbes are site specialists, and a clear understanding of microbiota structure at different sites in the mouth enables mechanistic studies, informs the generation of hypotheses, and strengthens the position of oral microbiology as a model system for microbial ecology in general.

UCHIME improves sensitivity and speed of chimera detection

TL;DR: UCHIME has better sensitivity than ChimeraSlayer (previously the most sensitive database method), especially with short, noisy sequences, and in testing on artificial bacterial communities with known composition, UCHIME de novo sensitivity is shown to be comparable to Perseus.

Structure, function and diversity of the healthy human microbiome

Curtis Huttenhower, +253 more
- 14 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: The Human Microbiome Project Consortium reported the first results of their analysis of microbial communities from distinct, clinically relevant body habitats in a human cohort; the insights into the microbial communities of a healthy population lay foundations for future exploration of the epidemiology, ecology and translational applications of the human microbiome as discussed by the authors.
