The regulatory and transcriptional landscape associated with carbon utilization in a filamentous fungus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Filamentous fungi, such as Neurospora crassa, are very efficient in deconstructing plant biomass by the secretion of an arsenal of plant cell wall-degrading enzymes, by remodeling metabolism to accommodate production of secreted enzymes, and by enabling ...

Genomic and phylotypic properties of three novel marine Bacteroidota from bare tidal flats reveal insights into their potential of polysaccharide metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Special geographical location and abundant organic matter profiles in tidal flats have resulted in great microbial diversity, in which Bacteroidota strains are considered as one of the primary degraders of polysaccharides, playing a crucial role in the ...

Maximizing efficiency of rumen microbial protein production. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rumen microbes produce cellular protein inefficiently partly because they do not direct all ATP toward growth. They direct some ATP toward maintenance functions, as long-recognized, but they also direct ATP toward reserve carbohydrate synthesis and ...

A polysaccharide utilization locus from Chitinophaga pinensis simultaneously targets chitin and β-glucans found in fungal cell walls

open access: yesmSphere, 2023
In nature, complex carbohydrates are rarely found as pure isolated polysaccharides. Instead, bacteria in competitive environments are presented with glycans embedded in heterogeneous matrices such as plant or microbial cell walls.

Structure- and context-based analysis of the GxGYxYP family reveals a new putative class of glycoside hydrolase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundGut microbiome metagenomics has revealed many protein families and domains found largely or exclusively in that environment. Proteins containing the GxGYxYP domain are over-represented in the gut microbiota, and are found in Polysaccharide ...

CAZymes in Maribacter dokdonensis 62–1 From the Patagonian Shelf: Genomics and Physiology Compared to Related Flavobacteria and a Co-occurring Alteromonas Strain

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) are an important feature of bacteria in productive marine systems such as continental shelves, where phytoplankton and macroalgae produce diverse polysaccharides.

Capsular profiling of the Cronobacter genus and the association of specific Cronobacter sakazakii and C. malonaticus capsule types with neonatal meningitis and necrotizing enterocolitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Cronobacter sakazakii and C. malonaticus can cause serious diseases especially in infants where they are associated with rare but fatal neonatal infections such as meningitis and necrotising enterocolitis.

Reciprocal Prioritization to Dietary Glycans by Gut Bacteria in a Competitive Environment Promotes Stable Coexistence

open access: yesmBio, 2017
When presented with nutrient mixtures, several human gut Bacteroides species exhibit hierarchical utilization of glycans through a phenomenon that resembles catabolite repression.

Toward Understanding the Alginate Catabolism in Microbulbifer sp. ALW1 by Proteomics Profiling

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
The bacterial strain of Microbulbifer sp. ALW1 has demonstrated visible ability of degrading the cell wall of Laminaria japonica, and biochemical characterization has been performed on some individual enzymes to elucidate its genetic basis.

Utilization of glycosaminoglycans by the human gut microbiota: participating bacteria and their enzymatic machineries

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2022
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are consistently present in the human colon in free forms and as part of proteoglycans. Their utilization is critical for the colonization and proliferation of gut bacteria and also the health of hosts. Hence, it is essential to
