Description:
The bacteria that colonize humans and our built environments have the potential to influence our health. Microbial communities associated with seven families and their homes over 6 weeks were assessed, including three families that moved their home. Microbial communities differed substantially among homes, and the home microbiome was largely sourced from humans. The microbiota in each home were identifiable by family. Network analysis identified humans as the primary bacterial vector, and a Bayesian method significantly matched individuals to their dwellings. Draft genomes of potential human pathogens observed on a kitchen counter could be matched to the hands of occupants. After a house move, the microbial community in the new house rapidly converged on the microbial community of the occupants' former house, suggesting rapid colonization by the family's microbiota.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4337996/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉 〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4337996/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lax, Simon -- Smith, Daniel P -- Hampton-Marcell, Jarrad -- Owens, Sarah M -- Handley, Kim M -- Scott, Nicole M -- Gibbons, Sean M -- Larsen, Peter -- Shogan, Benjamin D -- Weiss, Sophie -- Metcalf, Jessica L -- Ursell, Luke K -- Vazquez-Baeza, Yoshiki -- Van Treuren, Will -- Hasan, Nur A -- Gibson, Molly K -- Colwell, Rita -- Dantas, Gautam -- Knight, Rob -- Gilbert, Jack A -- DP2 DK098089/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DP2-DK-098089/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P01 DK078669/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG004872/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- T32 GM008759/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- U01 HG004866/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2014 Aug 29;345(6200):1048-52. doi: 10.1126/science.1254529.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Ecology and Evolution, University of Chicago, 1101 E 57th Street, Chicago, IL 60637, USA.
