Genomic reconstruction of short-chain fatty acid production by the human gut microbiota

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) including acetate, formate, propionate, and butyrate are the end products of dietary fiber and host glycan fermentation by the human gut microbiota (HGM). SCFAs produced in the column are of utmost importance for host physiology and health. Butyrate and propionate imp...
