1123-Carrageenan Catabolism in Ruminant Microbiomes

This research investigates how ruminant livestock can digest seaweed polysaccharides, specifically carrageenan, through specialized microbial pathways. By analyzing the microbiomes of cattle fed red seaweed, scientists identified carrageenan-active polysaccharide utilization loci (CarPULs) within the genus Bacteroides. These genetic pathways, which encode keystone enzymes and sulfatases, allow the...去小宇宙查看完整单集简介
