Utilization of four galactans by Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron A4 based on transcriptome
The interaction between gut microbiota and polysaccharide is being paid more and more attention. Galactan is a kind of polysaccharide mainly composed of galactose, and it has been shown to play a significant role in regulating gut microbiota. Bacteroides
