This paper introduces a mild extraction method for Gram-positive bacterial cell wall glycopolymers that preserves structural integrity and yields 17 distinct glycopolymers from 11 species.

This paper identifies two carbohydrate esterases from Bacteroides cellulosilyticus that work together to deacetylate complex β-mannans, with one showing specificity for 2-O-acetyl groups and the other acting broadly on diverse substrates.
