Bacterial proteins in amniotic fluid extracellular vesicles (AM EVs) and maternal fecal extracellular vesicles (FE EVs) share taxonomic and functional characteristics. Taxonomy of the bacterial proteins identified in amniotic fluid-derived EVs (n = 26) and feces-derived EVs (n = 25) at the phylum level. The number of protein hits assigned to each phylum is represented in log10-scores, with samples presented in columns and phyla names with ≥ 10 protein hits shown in rows. The sample cohort included a twin pregnancy, designated A and B in the amniotic fluid samples (A). GO biological process classes of bacterial proteins identified in AM EVs and FE EVs are presented as log10-scores (B). GO molecular function classes of bacterial proteins identified in AM EVs and FE EVs are presented as log10-scores (C)
