The Biosynthesis of Lipooligosaccharide from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a cell-associated glycolipid that makes up the outer leaflet of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, is a canonical mediator of microbe-host interactions. The most prevalent Gram-negative gut bacterial taxon, Bacteroides, makes up around 50% of the cells in a typical Western gut; these cells harbor ~300 mg of LPS, making it one of the highest-abundance molecul...
متن کاملCharacterization of cephalosporinases from Bacteroides fragilis, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron and Bacteroides vulgatus.
The susceptibility of 80 Bacteroides fragilis group strains isolated from clinical specimens to beta-lactam antibiotics was investigated by agar dilution method. Twenty strains showed high resistance to the antibiotics. The resistance level of the isolates to cephaloridine was related to the amount of beta-lactamase activity (cephalosporinase; CSase) produced. B. fragilis GN-11477, B. thetaiota...
متن کاملA humanized gnotobiotic mouse model of host-archaeal-bacterial mutualism.
Our colons harbor trillions of microbes including a prominent archaeon, Methanobrevibacter smithii. To examine the contributions of Archaea to digestive health, we colonized germ-free mice with Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, an adaptive bacterial forager of the polysaccharides that we consume, with or without M. smithii or the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio piger. Whole-genome transcri...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Methanobrevibacter smithii Strain KB11, Isolated from a Korean Fecal Sample
The archaeon Methanobrevibacter smithii is a major colonizer of the human gut. Methanobrevibacter smithii strain KB11 was newly isolated from a Korean fecal sample. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of strain KB11 and a brief comparison with that of M. smithii type strain ATCC 35061T.
متن کاملCharacteristics of a water-forming NADH oxidase from Methanobrevibacter smithii, an archaeon in the human gut
NADH oxidases (NOXs) catalysing the oxidation of NADH to yield NAD+ and H2O, H2O2, or both play an important role in protecting organisms from oxidative stress and maintaining the balance of NAD+/NADH. A gene encoding NOX was identified from Methanobrevibacter smithii (NOX-ms), the predominant archaeon in the human gut ecosystem. Subsequent analyses showed that it is an FAD-containing protein w...
