Metaproteomics reveals parallel utilization of colonic mucin glycans and dietary fibers by the human gut microbiota
Summary: A diet lacking dietary fibers promotes the expansion of gut microbiota members that can degrade host glycans, such as those on mucins. The microbial foraging on mucin has been associated with disruptions of the gut-protective mucus layer and colonic inflammation. Yet, it remains unclear how...
