Symbiotic Human Gut Bacteria with Variable Metabolic Priorities for Host Mucosal Glycans
Many symbiotic gut bacteria possess the ability to degrade multiple polysaccharides, thereby providing nutritional advantages to their hosts. Like microorganisms adapted to other complex nutrient environments, gut symbionts give different metabolic priorities to substrates present in mixtures. We in...
