Bacterial microcompartments for isethionate desulfonation in the taurine-degrading human-gut bacterium <i>Bilophila wadsworthia</i>

2021-07-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Bilophila wadsworthia , a strictly anaerobic, sulfite-reducing bacterium and common member of the human gut microbiota, has been associated with diseases such as appendicitis and colitis. It is specialized on organosulfonate respiration for energy conservation, i.e., utilization of dietary and host-derived organosulfonates, such as taurine (2-aminoethansulfonate), as sulfite donors for sulfite...
