Temporal dynamics and metagenomics of phosphorothioate epigenomes in the human gut microbiome

Abstract Background Epigenetic regulation of gene expression and host defense is well established in microbial communities, with dozens of DNA modifications comprising the epigenomes of prokaryotes and bacteriophage. Phosphorothioation (PT) of DNA, in which a chemically reactive sulfur atom replaces...
