Resumen
La genética del huésped influye en los microbios intestinales. La genética humana, específicamente los genotipos ABO y FUT2, se correlaciona con los genes de utilización de N-acetilgalactosamina (GalNAc) en bacterias intestinales como Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, lo que afecta la salud cardiometabólica.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Investigación del microbioma humano
- Interacciones huésped-microbioma
- Metagenómica y Genética
Sus antecedentes:
- Enlace establecido entre la genética del huésped y la composición microbiana intestinal.
- Comprensión limitada de la regulación genética del huésped en la diversidad genética microbiana.
- Centrarse en las variaciones estructurales dentro de los microorganismos intestinales.
Conclusiones:
- La genética del huésped influye directamente en la composición genética de los microorganismos intestinales.
- Demuestra un vínculo funcional entre el estado de secretor del huésped (ABO/FUT2) y las capacidades metabólicas bacterianas (utilización de GalNAc).
- Destaca la relación recíproca entre los genomas humanos y bacterianos, lo que afecta la salud del huésped.

01:23Anatomy of the Intestines
72.0K
Although digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids may begin in the stomach, it is completed in the intestine. The absorption of nutrients, water, and electrolytes from food and drink also occurs in the intestine. The intestines can be divided into two structurally distinct organs—the small and large intestines.
Small Intestines
The small intestine is an ~7 meter-long tube with an inner diameter of just 2.5 cm. Since most nutrients are absorbed here, the inner lining of the...

01:25Genetic Variation
288
Genetic variation is the diversity in DNA sequences found among individuals of the same species. This diversity is crucial for a species' survival because it helps organisms adapt to environmental changes. Genetic variation begins with fertilization, where an egg and sperm cell merge. Each of these cells carries 23 chromosomes, up to 46 in the fertilized egg. Chromosomes are long DNA strands that contain genes, the basic units of heredity.

01:30Structure of a Gene
12.6K
A gene is the fundamental unit of heredity. Every individual has two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent. Although most people contain the same genes, there is a small fraction that is slightly different amongst people. A gene with a small difference in its sequence of DNA bases forms different alleles, contributing to different phenotypes.
However, only 1% of the DNA is composed of genes that encode proteins; the rest, 99% is non-coding DNA. This non-coding DNA performs...

03:21Genome Size and the Evolution of New Genes
8.0K
While every living organism has a genome of some kind (be it RNA, or DNA), there is considerable variation in the sizes of these blueprints. One major factor that impacts genome size is whether the organism is prokaryotic or eukaryotic. In prokaryotes, the genome contains little to no non-coding sequence, such that genes are tightly clustered in groups or operons sequentially along the chromosome. Conversely, the genes in eukaryotes are punctuated by long stretches of non-coding sequence.

02:05Gene Evolution - Fast or Slow?
7.1K
The genomes of eukaryotes are punctuated by long stretches of sequence which do not code for proteins or RNAs. Although some of these regions do contain crucial regulatory sequences, the vast majority of this DNA serves no known function. Typically, these regions of the genome are the ones in which the fastest change, in evolutionary terms, is observed, because there is typically little to no selection pressure acting on these regions to preserve their sequences.
In contrast, regions which code...

02:54Evolutionary Relationships through Genome Comparisons
5.7K
Genome comparison is one of the excellent ways to interpret the evolutionary relationships between organisms. The basic principle of genome comparison is that if two species share a common feature, it is likely encoded by the DNA sequence conserved between both species. The advent of genome sequencing technologies in the late 20th century enabled scientists to understand the concept of conservation of domains between species and helped them to deduce evolutionary relationships across diverse...
