Fig. 8: Computational identification of class II microcin sequences and their expression in human fecal samples.
From: Antibacterial microcins are ubiquitous and functionally diverse across bacterial communities
A Microcin hits identified from metagenomes were clustered at ≥50% sequence similarity; bars represent hit counts per cluster. Each cluster is labeled by the most likely bacterial species of origin. The legend indicates hit identity (known/novel) by putative source (Gram +/−) per cluster. B Distribution of microcins identified in metagenomes, which were expressed in a paired metatranscriptome from the same fecal sample. Expressed microcins per unique metatranscriptome were sorted per cluster defined in (A); their count summed per genus of origin is shown in parentheses. Percentages represent these counts divided by the total number of microcins expressed in unique metatranscriptomes (n = 205).
