The human gut firmicute roseburia intestinalis is a primary degrader of dietary β-mannans

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Sabina Leanti La Rosa from the Norwegian University have published the research: The human gut Firmicute Roseburia intestinalis is a primary degrader of dietary β-mannans, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS
  • what: Using germ-free mice colonized with a model gut microbiota, the authors demonstrate that β-mannan alters the community composition, facilitating bacteria that have mannan degrading machineries. The authors show that two conserved loci, MULL and MULS, collectively provide R. intestinalis the capacity to depolymerize this plant polysaccharide. A highresolution melting (HRM) analysis was conducted to evaluate the specificity of the amplification . . .
