Taxonomic profile of human microbiome at EzBioCloud.net
EzBioCloud 16S database provides a comprehensive taxonomic backbone of Bacteria. Here we applied the sophisticated bioinformatics pipeline for the large dataset of U.S. human microbiome project, which allows us to recognize major bacterial inhabitants of our body.
- Data source: U.S. NIH human microbiome project (http://hmpdacc.org/)
- NGS platform: Roche 454
- Sequencing regions of 16S gene: various
- Human subjects: 242 healthy adults sampled at 15 or 18 body sites
- Bioinformatics pipeline used: ChunLab’s microbiome taxonomic profiling (MTP) pipeline described more details at here.
- The number of samples used in the calculation:
| Body sites | Samples | |
| 1 | Anterior nares | 433 |
| 2 | Attached Keratinized gingiva | 545 |
| 3 | Buccal mucosa | 536 |
| 4 | Hard palate | 502 |
| 5 | Left Antecubital fossa | 280 |
| 6 | Left Retroauricular crease | 458 |
| 7 | Mid vagina | 216 |
| 8 | Palatine Tonsils | 563 |
| 9 | Posterior fornix | 216 |
| 10 | Right Antecubital fossa | 284 |
| 11 | Right Retroauricular crease | 487 |
| 12 | Saliva | 487 |
| 13 | Stool | 574 |
| 14 | Subgingival plaque | 558 |
| 15 | Supragingival plaque | 575 |
| 16 | Throat | 520 |
| 17 | Tongue dorsum | 570 |
| 18 | Vaginal introitus | 244 |
| Total | 8048 |
Statistics used:
(Example of the genus Bacteroides)
| Mean occurrence (%): | Mean occurrence of the taxon, calculated from all samples |
|---|---|
| Max occurrence (%): | Maximum occurrence found among all samples |
| Samples found (%): | Portion of samples in which the taxon was found |
