The paper shows that fucosylation of intestinal mucin determines the entry routes and oral toxicity of botulinum toxin complexes.

This study investigates how Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis uptakes fucosylated and non-fucosylated HMOs and related saccharides, revealing structural and functional insights into their recognition and transport.

This study identifies key yeast and bacterial species affecting Drosophila larval growth and shows their functional roles in gene regulation and metabolism.
