Transfer of carbohydrate-active enzymes from marine bacteria to Japanese gut microbiota

TL;DR: It is shown that porphyranases and agarases are frequent in the Japanese population and that they are absent in metagenome data from North American individuals, which indicates that contact with non-sterile food may be a general factor in CAZyme diversity in human gut microbes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental and Gut Bacteroidetes: The Food Connection

TL;DR: This review presents the current knowledge on the role and mechanisms of polysaccharide degradation by Bacteroidetes in their respective habitats and addresses the potential links between gut and environmental bacteria through food consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacteria of the human gut microbiome catabolize red seaweed glycans with carbohydrate-active enzyme updates from extrinsic microbes

TL;DR: Experimental support is established for the argument that CAZymes and associated genes obtained from extrinsic microbes add new catabolic functions to the human gut microbiome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Competition-dispersal tradeoff ecologically differentiates recently speciated marine bacterioplankton populations.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the principles of spatial ecology, traditionally applied at macroscales, can be extended to the ocean’s microscale to understand how the rich spatiotemporal structure of the resource landscape contributes to the fine-scale ecological differentiation and species coexistence among marine bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ten years of CAZypedia: a living encyclopedia of carbohydrate-active enzymes

Wade Abbott, +102 more

TL;DR: CAZypedia was initiated in 2007 to create a comprehensive, living encyclopedia of the carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) and associated carbohydrate-binding modules involved in the synthesis, modification and degradation of complex carbohydrates.
