Revolutionizing Health Research: University of Galway Unveils World’s Largest Digital Microbe Collection
The simulation of diet-host-microbiome-disease relationships is made possible by genome-scale modeling of microbiome metabolism. However, the extent of available genome-scale reconstruction resources is constrained by computational difficulties. To create a database of 247,092 microbial genome-scale metabolic reconstructions encompassing 19 phyla and including more than 60% of uncharacterized strains, the analysis methodology known as APOLLO was…
