More from the #microbiota: Congratulations to Kazune Tamura on the publication of his epic paper on beta-glucan capture by Bacteroides in the human gut, which includes 9 new PDB entries. Michael Smith Labs UBC-BMB-GSA rcsb pdb 💉🧬💻🔬💊🌱🧠🦠 Journal of Biological Chemistry doi.org/10.1016/j.jbc.…











A big congratulations to @[email protected] on her amazing talk at the #GRC bacterial cell surfaces meeting!!! So proud! 🤩🎉🍷

Haley A. Brown (Nicole M Koropatkin lab): acarbose inhibits gut enzymes that break down starch. Also incr. butyrate production, decr. Bacteroides abundance. Does it inhibit their enzymes too? Yes, & differences exist between species b/c one has a backup enzyme. #BeneficialMicrobesMtg



Thanks Stefan Janecek for the shout out - this was a fun enzyme with many surprises!

Great week co-chairing the CAZymes GRC with Dr. Tina Jeoh! So many new ideas and friends- my brain and heart are full! Can’t wait for 2025 when Paul Walton leads the way! #cazy


I'm excited to share our work on lipoprotein synthesis in Bacteroides! Congratulations to first author @[email protected] who pioneered this work and a huge thanks to all our co-authors including our friends in the Mario Feldman lab! Go team! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
