Gene database of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron strain 7330

<i>Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron</i> is a Gram-negative obligate anaerobe that is a major inhabitant of the human gut. Known for its unique ability to digest complex polysaccharides from plants, the bacterium plays important roles in aiding human digestion and extraction of building blocks and energy from food. However, the bacterium could also become an opportunistic pathogen when displaced from its natural habitat. This work sought to provide fundamental information about the genetic repertoire of <i>B. thetaiotaomicron</i> strain 7330 by parsing its annotated genome sequence from Genbank. Comprising gene name, gene function, and gene sequence, the resource should find use in fundamental and applied microbiology research seeking to explore the metabolic basis of the physiological role of the bacterium in the gut microbiome as well as possible ways in which its genetic repertoire could be exploited in biotechnology.
