Draft Genome Sequences of 15 Bacterial Species Constituting the Stable Defined Intestinal Microbiota of the GM15 Gnotobiotic Mouse Model.

The GM15 community is a bacterial consortium used to generate a novel standardized mouse model with a simplified controlled intestinal microbiota recapitulating the specific opportunistic pathogen-free (SOPF) mouse phenotype and the potential to ensure an increased reproducibility and robustness of preclinical studies by limiting the confounding effect of microbiota composition fluctuation.
