A microproteome screen identifies immunomodulatory bacterial microproteins encoded in expanded gene arrays in Leptotrichia

The human microbiome exerts broad influence in health and disease with associative studies implicating the microbiome in influencing immunity, cancer outcomes, and neurodegeneration. However, the molecular mediators of microbe-host communication remain poorly defined. Bacterial microproteins from the microbiome represent a largely uncharacterized class of potential regulators of host immunity.…
