Host- and microbial-mediated mucin degradation differentially shape <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> physiology and gene expression
2025-06-19
Abstract excerpt
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a hallmark pathogen of cystic fibrosis (CF) airway infections, capable of reaching high cell densities despite its limited ability to directly utilize mucin glycoproteins as a nutrient source. In the CF lung, however, P. aeruginosa may access preferred carbon sources (e.g., amino acids and short-chain fatty acids) through metabolic cross-feeding with co-colonizing mucin-degrading microbe...
