Metabolism in the Niche: a Large-Scale Genome-Based Survey Reveals Inositol Utilization To Be Widespread among Soil, Commensal, and Pathogenic Bacteria

Phytate is the main phosphorus storage molecule of plants and is therefore present in large amounts in the environment and in the diet of humans and animals. Its dephosphorylated form, the polyol myo-inositol (MI), can be used by bacteria as a sole carbon and energy source. The biochemistry and regu...
