Abstract Metagenomic studies have revealed the critical roles of complex microbial interactions, including horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and functional redundancy (FR), in shaping gut microbiome’s capacity resilience. However, lack comprehensive data integration systematic analysis approaches has limited in-depth exploration HGT FR dynamics across large-scale microbiome datasets. To address this gap, we present GutMetaNet (https://gutmetanet.deepomics.org/), a first-of-its-kind database integrating extensive human with analyses. contains 21 567 metagenome samples whole-genome shotgun sequencing related to various health conditions. Through analysis, characterized taxonomic profiles profiles, identified 14 636 events using shared reference genome collected samples. These been curated into 8049 clusters, which are annotated categorized mobile genetic elements, transposons, prophages, integrative mobilizable genomic islands, conjugative elements group II introns. Additionally, incorporates automated analyses visualizations for FR, serving as an efficient platform interactions among taxa their implications health.
