Deacetylation of β-Mannans by Two Complementary Carbohydrate Esterases from the Human Gut Microbe Bacteroides cellulosilyticus

Lars J. Lindstad, Pascal Michael Mrozek, Gordon Jacob Boehlich, Shaun Leivers, Phillip Byron Pope, Sabina Leanti La Rosa, Bjørge Westereng

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.
