1. Amino Acid Metabolism:

   • Acidaminococcaceae bacteria are known for their ability to metabolize amino acids. They play a role in the fermentation of amino acids, which can contribute to the production of various metabolic byproducts.

2. Gut Microbiota:

   • Some members of the Acidaminococcaceae family are found in the gut microbiota. The gut microbiota is a complex community of microorganisms that plays a crucial role in digestion, nutrient absorption, and the modulation of the immune system.

3. Short-Chain Fatty Acid Production:

   • Bacterial fermentation, including that of amino acids by Acidaminococcaceae bacteria, can contribute to the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). SCFAs, such as butyrate, acetate, and propionate, are metabolic products that have been associated with various health benefits, including maintaining gut health and influencing host metabolism.

4. Influence on Host Metabolism:

   • The metabolic activities of Acidaminococcaceae in the gut may have implications for host metabolism. The byproducts of bacterial fermentation, such as SCFAs, can serve as energy sources for host cells and influence various physiological processes.

5. Potential Role in Gut Dysbiosis:

   • Changes in the abundance or composition of specific bacterial families, including Acidaminococcaceae, have been observed in conditions involving gut dysbiosis. Dysbiosis refers to an imbalance in the microbial community of the gut and has been linked to various health conditions, including inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and metabolic disorders.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
