Microbial Cysteine Degradation Drives Cryptic Sulfide Redox Chemistry in the Gut
2021-10-01
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Although microbial biochemistry shapes a dynamic environment in the gut, how bacterial metabolites such as hydrogen sulfide (H<sub>2</sub>S) mechanistically alter the gut chemical landscape is poorly understood. Here we show for the first time that H<sub>2</sub>S generated during cysteine metabolism drives the reduction of azo (R-N=N-R’) xenobiotics in bacterial cultures, human fecal mi...
