Human gut metagenomes encode diverse GH156 sialidases

2022-06-28

Abstract excerpt

The intestinal lining is protected by a mucous barrier composed predominantly of complex carbohydrates. Gut microbes employ an array of glycoside hydrolases (GHs) to liberate mucosal sugars as a nutrient source to facilitate host colonization. Intensive catabolism of mucosal glycans, however, may contribute to barrier erosion, pathogen encroachment and inflammation. Sialic acid is an acidic sugar featured at termi...
