Recent research has indicated that in addition to the unique genotype each individual may also have a unique microbiota composition. Difference in microbiota composition may emerge from both its species and strain constituents. It is important to know the precise composition especially for the gut microbiota (GM), since it can contribute to the health assessment, personalized treatment, and disease prevention for individuals and groups (cohorts).

- The genomes of two Lactobacillus strains, 90sk and 15f, were derived from human gut bacteria.
- Both strains are capable of producing gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which is an important neurotransmitter that inhibits nerve activity.
- Analyzing these genomes will provide insights into how GABA influences the relationship between these bacteria and human intestinal cells.
