Extended Data Fig. 8: Triacylglycerol accumulation as a key metabolic community-wide trait.
From: Forecasting the dynamics of a complex microbial community using integrated meta-omics
a. Enzymatic reactions (with high abundance in at least one of the omics from LAO) leading to triacylglycerol accumulation in the community. GLY: Glycerol, Acyl-ACP: Acyl Carrier Protein, Acyl-P: Acyl phosphate, 3GP: 3-glycerol phosphate, ACAT: Acetyl-CoA, FA: Fatty Acid, DAG: Diacylglycerol, TG: Triacylglycerol, PE: phosphatidylethanolamine, PC: phosphatidylcholine. The enzyme class with KO number K22848 is responsible for the conversion of DAG in TG and, ultimately, the accumulation of TG. b. Gene and gene product abundances for the various enzymatic groups involved in the accumulation of TG varies in amount and taxonomic origin. The families belonging to the same phylum have similar colours to matching phyla in Fig. 1a. Therefore, Actinobacteria are in shades of yellow, Proteobacteria in shades of green while Leptospiraceae inherited the bure from the Spirochaetes. c. The gene abundance of K22484 is influenced by S9, indicating a, perhaps indirect effect on NH4 levels.
