BugSigDB is a community-editable database of manually curated microbial signatures from published differential abundance studies. It enables high-throughput analysis of signature similarity, taxon enrichment, co-occurrence, and consensus signatures.

The literature of human and other host-associated microbiome studies is expanding rapidly, but systematic comparisons among published results of host-associated microbiome signatures of differential abundance remain difficult.

We present BugSigDB, a community-editable database of manually curated microbial signatures from published differential abundance studies accompanied by information on study geography, health outcomes, host body site and experimental, epidemiological and statistical methods using controlled vocabulary. The initial release of the database contains >2,500 manually curated signatures from >600 published studies on three host species, enabling high-throughput analysis of signature similarity, taxon enrichment, co-occurrence and coexclusion and consensus signatures. These data allow assessment of microbiome differential abundance within and across experimental conditions, environments or body site

Genome-wide association study identifies bacterial SNPs associated with host body mass indexA new study has identified bacterial single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with host body mass index (BMI) through a metagenome-wide association study (MWAS). The study discovered 1,358 statistically significant associations between bacterial SNPs and BMI, with 40 independent associations. These associations were not explained by diet, medications, or physical exercise, and 17 of them replicated in a separate cohort. The study also revealed BMI-associated SNPs in 27 bacterial species, 12 of which were not detected by standard analysis methods.
