Extensive transfer of genes for edible seaweed digestion from marine to human gut bacteria

2020-06-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Humans harbor numerous species of colonic bacteria that digest the fiber polysaccharides in commonly consumed terrestrial plants. More recently in history, regional populations have consumed edible macroalgae seaweeds containing unique polysaccharides. It remains unclear how extensively gut bacteria have adapted to digest these nutrients and use these abilities to colonize microbiomes around the...
