Distinct protein architectures mediate species-specific beta-glucan binding and metabolism in the human gut microbiota

Complex glycans that evade our digestive system are major nutrients that feed the human gut microbiota (HGM). The prevalence of Bacteroidetes in the HGM of populations worldwide is engendered by the evolution of polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs), which encode concerted protein systems to utiliz...
