Mucinolysome in gut microbiomes of farm animals and humans
2025-10-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Mucins are glycoproteins that create a protective barrier protecting host tissues from microbial pathogens and are instrumental for host health. Here, we provide evidence that mucin glycan degradation in the gut can be mediated by mucinolysomes, defined as extracellular multi-enzyme complexes specializing in mucin glycan degradation. We computationally predicted the presence of mucinolysomes acr...
