It’s a microbial world…
…there are 100 million times as many bacteria on Earth
as stars in the universe.
Microbiology is the ultimate Big Data science!

Mineral Deposits Were Produced by Microbes

Your Body Has 10 Times
As Many Microbe Cells As DNA-Bearing Human Cells
Your Microbiome is
Your “Near-Body” Environment
and its Cells
Contain 300x as Many DNA Genes
As Your Human DNA-Bearing Cells
Inclusion of the “Dark Matter” of the Body
Will Radically Alter Medicine
New Estimates In 2016 Estimate a Human Body Contains
~30 Trillion Human Cells and ~40 Trillion Microbes
However, Red Blood Cells and Platelets Have No Nuclear DNA.
Therefore, Ratio of DNA-Bearing Cells for Human vs. Microbiome is Still >10:1
DNA-Bearing Cells
When We Think About Biological Diversity
We Typically Think of the Wide Range of Animals
But All These Animals Are in One SubPhylum Vertebrata
of the Chordata Phylum

We Must Move From Combating Single Microbe Diseases to
Developing the Human/Microbiome System Approach to Public Health
Bach (2002) N Engl J Med, Vol. 347, 911-920
2014For Public Health It is Still About Microbes,
But from Single Species to Entire Ecologies
The United States Population’s Human Gut Microbiome
Has Diverged a Great Deal from Hunter-Gatherers

Each Microbe Contains
a Few Thousand Genes on Its DNA
E. Coli Contains ~5000 Genes on its Circular Chromosome,
Which is 1000x the Length of the Cell!
Several Million Genes Can Occur in the Human Gut Microbiome
In a “Healthy” Gut Microbiome:
Large Taxonomy Variation, Low Protein Family Variation

Over 200 People
We Discovered That Many Protein Families
Are Very Over or Under-Abundant in the Disease State

Note: Orders of Magnitude Increase or Decrease in
Protein Families Between Health and Disease
Next Step: Which Proteins (Functions) are Altered?
To Expand IBD Project the Knight/Smarr Labs Were Awarded
~ 1 Million Core-Hours on SDSC’s Comet Supercomputer
• 8x Compute Resources Over Prior Study
• Smarr Gut Microbiome Time Series
– From 7 Samples Over 1.5 Years
– To 70 Samples Over 4 Years
• IBD Patients: From 5 Crohn’s Disease and 2 Ulcerative Colitis Patients

– 43 Metagenomes from the RISK Cohort of Newly Diagnosed IBD patients
• New Software Suite from Knight Lab
– Re-annotation of Reference Genomes, Functional / Taxonomic Variations

From War to Gardening:
New Therapeutical Tools for Managing the Microbiome
“I would like to lose the language of warfare,”
said Julie Segre, a senior investigator at
the National Human Genome Research Institute.
”It does a disservice to all the bacteria
that have co-evolved with us
and are maintaining the health of our bodies.”
Fecal Microbiome Transfer
Is a Rapidly Growing New Treatment for IBD
