Dysbiosis-associated gut bacterium <i>Ruminococcus gnavus</i> varies at the strain level in ability to utilize key mucin component sialic acid

2024-08-02

Abstract excerpt

Ruminococcus gnavus is a prevalent human gut commensal bacterium with known roles in intestinal mucus degradation, including by catabolism of the terminal mucin sugar sialic acid. While R. gnavus is not considered a pathogen, overabundance of this species is correlated with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), and its sialic acid metabolism may play a role in the dysbiotic state. Interestingly, liberation of mucin-b...
