Correlation analysis between gut microbial proteolysis pattern, composition, and protease expression. Principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) of metagenome (a) and microbial protease/peptidase transcriptome (b) is based on Bray-Curtis distance. Correlations between microbial proteolytic signatures (PCo1-PCo3 of semi-tryptic peptide LFQ), microbiome composition (n = 272, c), and protease/peptidase expression (n = 184, d) were calculated using Spearman’s rank correlation based on PCo1-PCo3 of metagenome and metatranscriptome, respectively. Only significant correlations with coefficient > 0.2 or < −0.2 (P < 0.05) are shown in c and d. The P value for each correlated pair is in parentheses
