Mixed-linkage β (1,3)/β (1,4)-glucan (MLG) is abundant in the human diet through the ingestion of cereal grains and is widely associated with healthful effects on metabolism and cholesterol …

May 6, 2019 · We recently identified an MLG utilization locus (MLGUL) in B. ovatus (Fig. 1 b), syntenic homologs of which enable select Bacteroides species in the human gut microbiota to …

Sep 17, 2018 · Using Brachypodium distachyon transcriptional profiling data, we identified a B. distachyon trihelix family transcription factor (BdTHX1) that is highly coexpressed with the B. …

Oct 10, 2017 · Mixed-linkage β (1,3)/β (1,4)-glucans (MLGs, Fig. 1A) from cereal grains constitute an additional key group of dietary glycans, whose utilization by gut microbes was previously …

In the human diet, mixed-linkage glucans [MLG - β- (1,3/4)-glucans] influence the gut microbiome and the host immune system. Although consumed daily, the molecular mechanism by which …

MLG oligosaccharides were confirmed to be present in all Equisetum samples (Fig. 5). Somewhat different patterns were noted among the products generated from the nine surveyed species of …

Jan 8, 2018 · Here, we report an on-chip inductor based on intercalated MLG (Fig. 1a) that overcomes the fundamental scalability challenge exhibited by on-chip inductors, without a loss …

An MLG-utilizing molecular mechanism has been identified in the Gram-negative bacterium B. ovatus ATCC 8483 (8), where a gene locus centered on tandem susC/susD homologs that …

Oct 19, 2012 · Among land-plant hemicelluloses, xyloglucan is ubiquitous, whereas mixed-linkage (1→3), (1→4)-β- d -glucan (MLG) is confined to the Poales (e.g. cereals) and Equisetales …

In cereal grain, sucrose is converted into storage carbohydrates: mainly starch, fructan, and mixed-linkage (1,3;1,4)-β-glucan (MLG). Previously, endosperm-specific overexpression of the …
