Production of Hydroxycarboxylic Acid Receptor 3 (HCA3) Ligands by Bifidobacterium
21 Nov 2021
Abstract excerpt
Hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 3 (HCA3) was recently identified in the genomes of humans and other hominids but not in other mammals. We examined the production of HCA3 ligands by Bifidobacterium spp. In addition to 4-hydroxyphenyllactic acid, phenyllactic acid (PLA), and indole-3-lactic acid (ILA), we found that LeuA was produced by Bifidobacterium as an HCA3 ligand. The four ligands produced were the mixtures...
