Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron

Trends in Microbiology, 2018
This infographic on Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (Bt) explores the ability of this microbe to digest a broad array of complex carbohydrates, alter its surface features, and its emerging role in gastrointestinal diseases. The infographic of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (Bt) illustrates two key facets of its symbiotic lifestyle in the human gut: a broad ...

CRISPR/Cas-Based Genome Editing for Human Gut Commensal Bacteroides Species.

ACS Synthetic Biology, 2022
Bacteroides is the most abundant genus in the human gut microbiome and has been increasingly used as model organisms for studying the function and ecology of the gut microbiome.

Bacteriophages of Bacteroides

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1979
Sixty-eight bacteriophages specific for nine species (DNA homology groups) of Bacteroides were isolated from sewage. Four distinct morphological types were isolated, three of which had not previously been described. Attempts to use these phages to transduce Bacteroides fragilis were unsuccessful.

Roles of intestinal bacteroides in human health and diseases

Critical reviews in food science and nutrition, 2020
Bacteroides, an abundant genus in the intestines of mammals, has been recently considered as the next generation probiotics (NGP) candidate due to its potential role in promoting host health.

Ultrastructure of Bacteroides Species: Bacteroides asaccharolyticus, Bacteroides fragilis, Bacteroides melaninogenicus Subspecies melaninogenicus, and B. melaninogenicus Subspecies intermedins

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1979
Representative strains of two subspecies of Bacteroides melaninogenicus (subspecies melaninogenicus and subspecies intermedius) and Bacteroides asaccharolyticus as well as B. asaccharolyticus strain 536B isolated from a human perirectal abscess and Bacteroides fragilis ATCC 25285 were examined by glutaraldehyde-osmium fixation, ruthenium red fixation ...

Prevalence of antimicrobial resistance genes in Bacteroides spp. and Prevotella spp. Dutch clinical isolates

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2019
OBJECTIVES The prevalence of resistance genes in two important anaerobic genera, Bacteroides and Prevotella, was assessed by applying PCR specifically directed to genes of interest. METHODS A total of 101 Bacteroides spp. and 99 Prevotella spp.

Investigations of Bacteroides spp. towards next-generation probiotics.

Food Research International, 2019
Probiotics play important roles on sustaining or reconstructing the homeostasis of intestinal microbiota, which is one of the key factors in alleviating diseases and maintaining the healthy condition of the host.

Differentiation of Bacteroides ovatus and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron by means of bacteriophage

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1984
Two members of the Bacteroides fragilis group, B. ovatus and B. thetaiotaomicron, are difficult to distinguish by biochemical methods. They are currently identified on the basis of their variable ability to ferment salicin. We studied a method of identification for these two species by using cell lysis by bacteriophages.

Complex N-glycan breakdown by human gut Bacteroides involves an extensive enzymatic apparatus encoded by multiple co-regulated genetic loci

Nature Microbiology, 2019
Glycans are the major carbon sources available to the human colonic microbiota. Numerous N-glycosylated proteins are found in the human gut, from both dietary and host sources, including immunoglobulins such as IgA that are secreted into the intestine at
