Human gut <i>Faecalibacterium prausnitzii</i> deploy a highly efficient conserved system to cross-feed on β-mannan-derived oligosaccharides

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> β-Mannans are hemicelluloses that are abundant in modern diets as components in seed endosperms and common additives in processed food. Currently, the collective understanding of β-mannan saccharification in the human colon is limited to a few keystone species, which presumably liberate low-molecular-weight mannooligosaccharide fragments that become directly available to the surrounding microbia...
