This study identifies and characterizes O-glycopeptidases from Bacteroides caccae, revealing their substrate selectivity and diversity in mucin degradation.

The paper identifies carrageenan catabolism pathways in ruminant gut microbiomes, revealing their widespread distribution and evolutionary history.

The paper shows that stringent response activation in Staphylococcus aureus increases plasmid conjugation, particularly in strains with Rel mutations, without relying on known mechanisms like CodY derepression or increased plasmid copy number.

This study reveals the complete enzymatic cascade for {lambda}-carrageenan depolymerization in Pseudoalteromonas distincta using structural analysis of ten glycoside hydrolases and five sulfatases.
