Designed nanobody‐linked synthetic consortia for microbiota dysbiosis therapies. A. Nanobodies (Nb) are selected for specific antigens on target bacteria destined for a synthetic therapy consortium that may consist of two (B) or multiple (C) members. For the treatment of dysbiosis co‐morbidities requiring two functionally distinct consortia, these may be linked through a common member to generate a single bi‐functional microbiota therapy (D).
