Accounting for 16S rRNA copy number prediction uncertainty and its implications in bacterial diversity analyses
Time-independent variation is present in 16S GCN evolution To evaluate the extent of time-independent or intraspecific variation in 16S GCN, we examined 5437 pairs of genomes with identical 16S rRNA gene alignments. The 16S GCN differs in 607 (11%) of them, suggesting the presence of significant time-independent variation. For the…
Revealing proteome-level functional redundancy in the human gut microbiome using ultra-deep metaproteomics
