Extensive richness and novel taxa of sulfoquinovose-degrading bacteria in the cow rumen
2025-05-20
Abstract excerpt
Sulfoquinovose (SQ), a sulfonated sugar derived from the thylakoid membrane lipid sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol (SQDG), is abundant in photosynthetic organisms and plays a key role in global sulfur cycling. Its degradation in nature is mediated by specialized bacteria, many of which rely on the enzyme sulfoquinovosidase (YihQ) to release SQ from SQDG. Despite its ecological importance, the diversity and functiona...
