Evolutionary, ecological and biotechnological perspectives on plasmids resident in the human gut mobile metagenome
Numerous mobile genetic elements (MGE) are associated with the human gut microbiota and collectively referred to as the gut mobile metagenome. The role of this flexible gene pool in development and functioning of the gut microbial community remains largely unexplored, yet recent evidence suggests th...
