From shotgun sequencing, we detected participant CT12 had low levels of Methanobrevibacter smithii present in the terminal ileum, descending colon, and rectal biopsies (N = 3 biological replicates; error bars are 95% CI centered on the mean). MAG construction was performed on co-assembly of all biopsies taken from the terminal ileum and descending colon to reconstruct a full Methanobrevibacter smithii genome (completeness: 100%, redundancy: 0%).
