A pair of esterases from a commensal gut bacterium remove acetylations from all positions on complex β-mannans

L. Michalak, S. Leanti La Rosa, S. A. Leivers, L. J. Lindstad, A. R. Kjendseth, F. L. Aachmann, B. Westereng

This paper identifies two esterases from a gut bacterium that cooperatively deacetylate complex β-mannans, revealing their structural and functional mechanisms.
