MMDB_Mouse

MMDB_Mouse provides taxonomic profiling of the healthy mouse gastrointestinal microbiome using 16S rRNA gene-based sequencing data.

Key Features:

• Comprehensive Taxonomic Profiles: Compiles taxonomic profiles from 554 healthy mouse samples aggregated from 14 distinct projects.
• Curated Metadata: Includes manually curated metadata linked to taxonomic profiles.
• Strain-Specific Insights: Reports variation in microbial composition across mouse strains, gastrointestinal locations, genotypes, and vendors.

Scientific Applications:

• Metabolic and Immune System Research: Supports studies on how microbiota influence host metabolism and immune responses.
• Neurodevelopmental Studies: Enables investigation of gut microbiota-brain interactions in murine models.
• Pre-Clinical Experimentation: Provides baseline microbiome data for experiments involving gastrointestinal health and disease models.

Methodology:

Construction involved compiling 16S rRNA gene-based taxonomic profiles from 554 healthy mouse gastrointestinal samples across 14 distinct projects.
