Characterization of a Unique Carbohydrate-Binding Module from Akkermansia muciniphila that Binds Ganglioside-Associated Glycans
Akkermansia muciniphila is a mucin-degrading gut symbiont that promotes host metabolic health through its ability to utilize host-derived glycans. Central to this microbe is its diverse set of glycoside hydrolases (GHs), specifically GHs involved in degrading host glycans like mucin. Here, we characterize an A. mucin...
