In our study published today in @ScienceMagazine, we provide a proof of concept for the potential use of ancient microbes as a source for developing new drugs by synthesising previously unknown metabolites from reconstructed gene clusters. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

of uncharacterized species diversity in Baka and Nzime plaque and US/European plaque. It seems that dental plaque microbial composition is shaped and constrained by different forces than those affecting the gut microbiome 4/5

Looks like we'll have to focus in on specific species, and find the evolutionary adaptations bacteria are bundling into their genomes 6/6

despite substantial dietary changes between the 2 periods. If we don't find broad community changes reflecting evolutionary adaptations in ancient dental calculus, how can we still use it to study microbiome evolution? 5/6

List of #ancient #metagenomics labs compiled during #SPAAM3 !! And if you know more that we may have missed, contact us and contribute!!
SPAAM-community@spaam_community

🚨 We are happy to announce the first(!) outcome of #SPAAM3: Need help finding reviewers, collaborators, thesis commitee members? Together, we compiled a list of all known labs working on #AncientMetagenomics! spaam-community.github.io/ancient-metage…

Great thread by @ZandraSelina on her latest - does tooth matter for ancient dental calculus studies?
