Systematic profiling of growth interactions in human gut microbiome species
Microbial interactions shape the composition and stability of the human gut microbiome. Yet, the molecular mechanisms underlying these relationships remain poorly understood. Here, we systematically p...

New preprint from the lab is out! 🥳
We systematically profiled all pairwise growth interactions between 36 representative human gut microbiome strains, and delved deeper into the molecular mechanisms behind specific growth interactions.

Really cool story from @lisamaierlab.bsky.social!
We are happy that @luuuprz.bsky.social (PhD student in our lab) contributed a small part.

New paper from the lab!
Led by Patrick Müller: we show that non-antibiotic compounds — but not macrolide antibiotics — can induce an efflux pump that protects Bacteroidaceae from macrolides.
A neat twist on drug–microbe interactions... www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Species of the Bacteroidota phylum exhibit a unique O-glycosylation system. It modifies noncytoplasmic proteins on a specific amino acid motif with a shared glycan core but a species-specific outer g....
