As a complementary approach, we employed a statistical framework specifically designed to detect global alterations in the subcellular proteomes, as described by [40]
Further analysis indicated that among the 19 overgrown bacterial families, 12 possessed the urease gene ( Alteromonadaceae , Clostridiaceae , Cellulomonadaceae , Enterobacteriaceae , Dermabacteraceae , Halomonadaceae , Micrococcaceae , Moraxellaceae , Methylococcaceae , Pseudomonadaceae , Polyangiaceae , and Xanthomonadaceae ), 5 harbored the uricase gene ( Dermabacteraceae , Cellulomonadaceae , Xanthomonadaceae , Micrococcaceae , and Polyangiaceae ) producing ammonia that is harmful to the intestinal epithelium, and 3 expressed the tryptophanase gene necessary for the conversion of tryptophan into indole, which is then metabolized by the liver into uremic toxins ( Enterobacteriaceae , Clostridiaceae , and Verrucomicrobiaceae ) (Wong et al., 2014)
