Simple and complex carbohydrates (glycans) have long been known to play major
metabolic, structural and physical roles in biological systems. Targeted microbial binding to …

Many Gram-negative bacteria use the sophisticated type II secretion system (T2SS) to
translocate a wide range of proteins from the periplasm across the outer membrane. The …

Insoluble polysaccharides can be degraded by a set of hydrolytic enzymes formed by
catalytic modules appended to one or more non-catalytic carbohydrate-binding modules …

Sialidases are a large group of enzymes, the majority of which catalyses the cleavage of
terminal sialic acids from complex carbohydrates on glycoproteins or glycolipids. In the …

This study investigated the chemical and genetic mechanisms of anaerobic fermentation of
waste activated sludge (WAS) with CaO 2 addition at ambient temperature. The microbial …

Sialic acids are nine‐carbon‐backbone sugars that occupy outermost positions on
vertebrate cells and secreted sialoglycoproteins. These negatively charged hydrophilic …

Objective We used the postoperative recurrence model to better understand the role of
adherent and invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) bacteria in Crohn's disease (CD), taking …

Cutibacterium acnes is an opportunistic pathogen linked with acne vulgaris, affecting 80–
90% of teenagers globally. On the leukocyte (WBCs) cell surface, the cell wall anchored …

Many respiratory pathogens, including Hemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae,
and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, express neuraminidases that can cleave α2, 3-linked sialic …

Streptococcus pneumoniae remains a major cause of bacteremia, pneumonia, and otitis
media despite vaccines and effective antibiotics. The neuraminidase of S. pneumoniae …
