From: NLRP12 attenuates colon inflammation by maintaining colonic microbial diversity and promoting protective commensal bacterial growth

Supplementary Figure 3

(a) Schematic showing fecal DNA collection from mice housed in two distinct vivarium for 16s rRNA gene sequencing. (b) Bacterial diversity within WT (n=18) and Nlrp12–/– (n=15) mice, (c) PCoA plot showing microbiota compositional differences between WT and Nlrp12-/- mice from a repeated 16S rRNA gene microbiome sequencing experiment conducted in vivarium #2. (d) Schematic showing fecal DNA collection from Nlrp12+/+ and Nlrp12–/– littermates derived from the same parents for 16s rRNA gene sequencing. (e) PCoA plots of microbiota compositional differences between Nlrp12+/+ and Nlrp12–/–littermates. Error bars show SEM. One dot represents one mouse. **p<0.01 determined by two-tailed unpaired t test.
