Modeling approaches for probing cross-feeding interactions in the human gut microbiome
Microbial communities perform emergent activities that are essentially different from those carried by their individual members. The gut microbiome and its metabolites have a significant impact on the host, contributing to homeostasis or disease. Food molecules shape this community, being fermented through cross-feeding interactions of metabolites such as lactate, acetate, and amino acids, or products derived from macromolecule degradation. Mathematical and […]
