Reduction in diversity of the colonic mucosa associated bacterial microflora in patients with active inflammatory bowel disease
S. J. Ott,Meike Musfeldt,D F Wenderoth,Jochen Hampe,O Brant,Ulrich R. Fölsch,Kenneth N. Timmis,Stefan Schreiber +7 more
TL;DR: Mucosal inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease is associated with loss of normal anaerobic bacteria, independent of NOD2/CARD15 status of patients.

Quantification of Intestinal Bacterial Populations by Real-Time PCR with a Universal Primer Set and Minor Groove Binder Probes: a Global Approach to the Enteric Flora
TL;DR: The TaqMan real-time PCR-based method for the quantification of 20 dominant bacterial species and groups of the intestinal flora has been established on the basis of 16S ribosomal DNA taxonomy and may facilitate understanding of the intestine bacterial flora through a normalized global estimation of the major contributing species.
Novel Type of ADP-Forming Acetyl Coenzyme A Synthetase in Hyperthermophilic Archaea: Heterologous Expression and Characterization of Isoenzymes from the Sulfate Reducer Archaeoglobus fulgidus and the Methanogen Methanococcus jannaschii
Meike Musfeldt,Peter Schönheit +1 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that A. fulgidus and M. jannaschii contains a novel type of ADP-forming acetyl-CoA synthetase in Archaea, in which the subunit polypeptides and their coding genes are fused.
