This study uses ASOs to selectively inhibit mRNA translation in Prevotellaceae species, enabling functional analysis and targeted depletion in synthetic communities.

The paper investigates how dietary components and Enterobacteriaceae influence competition between Prevotellaceae and Bacteroidaceae in the gut microbiota, finding that Enterobacteriaceae enhance Prevotellaceae dominance under specific conditions.

This study identifies a small RNA, SrcF, essential for gut colonization of Segatella copri, regulated by complex carbohydrates and influenced by the human microbiome.

The paper adapts Cas9-based gene editing to study species-specific competition mechanisms in Klebsiella species.
