Metagenomic characterization of sphingomyelinase C in the microbiome of humans and environments
Bacterial sphingomyelinases (SMases) hydrolyze sphingomyelin and play an important role in membrane dynamics and the host immune system. While the number of sequenced genomes and metagenomes is increasing, a limited number of experimentally validated SMases have been reported, and the genomic divers...
