Data represent the top three KEGG metabolic pathways that were attributed to each engrafted species from the healthy consortium of microbes (MET) into the ulcerative colitis-associated microbial community with and without rifaximin pretreatment (Abx), as determined by the number of KEGG orthologies contributed by each allochthonous species that were novel to the ulcerative colitis-associated microbial community present in the bioreactors. Each of these novel KEGG orthologies is represented by a + symbol, so that the number of novel KEGG orthologies per KEGG metabolic pathway may be observed. Species represented are the following: Acidaminococcus intestini, Eubacterium eligens, Bacteroides ovatus, Eubacterium ventriosum, Parabacteroides distasonis, Roseburia faecis, Roseburia inulinivorans, Eubacterium fissicatena, Coprococcus comes, and Flavonifractor plautii.
