This paper genetically engineers and screens microbial strains to produce chemically defined RG-II oligosaccharides, revealing new insights into their metabolism and potential applications in human and plant health.

This study develops a platform for recombinant production of Group A Streptococcus glycoconjugate vaccines using E. coli, confirming their structural integrity and immunogenicity in animal models.

The paper identifies a conserved gene cluster in Flavobacterium that enables efficient xyloglucan utilization, revealing its role in plant-associated bacterial nutrient acquisition.

This study identifies a mucin-induced PUL in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron that processes mucin-O-glycoproteins and metabolizes N-acetylgalactosamine, highlighting its role in microbiota-gut homeostasis.
