The construction and screening of metagenomic expression libraries has great potential to identify novel genes and their functions. Here, we describe metagenomic library preparation from fecal DNA, screening of libraries for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), massively parallel DNA sequencing of the enriched DNA fragments, and a computational pipeline for high-throughput assembly and annotation of functionally selected DNA.
宏基因组表达文库的构建与筛选在鉴定新基因及其功能方面具有巨大潜力。在此,我们描述了从粪便DNA制备宏基因组文库、筛选文库中的抗生素抗性基因(ARG)、对富集的DNA片段进行大规模平行DNA测序,以及用于功能选择DNA的高通量组装和注释的计算流程。
