Uncovering a novel molecular mechanism for scavenging sialic acids in bacteria

Bell, Andrew Severi, Emmanuele Lee, Micah

The human gut symbiont Ruminococcus gnavus scavenges host-derived N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) from mucins by converting it to 2,7-anhydro-Neu5Ac. We previously showed that 2,7-anhydro-Neu5Ac is transported into R. gnavus ATCC 29149 before being converted back to Neu5Ac for further metabolic processing. However, the molecular mechanism...

The human gut symbiont Ruminococcus gnavus shows specificity to blood group A antigen during mucin glycan foraging: Implication for niche colonisation in the gastrointestinal tract

Wu, H. Crost, E. Owen, C. David

AU The:human Pleaseconfirmthatallheadinglevelsarerepresentedcorrectly gut symbiont Ruminococcus gnavus displays strain-specific : repertoires of glycoside hydrolases (GHs) contributing to its spatial location in the gut. Sequence similarity network analysis identified strain-specific differences in blood-group endo-β-1,4-galactosidase belonging...
