Project description:We use high-throughput sequencing to profile the response of oral commensal pathogen Streptococcus mutans to mucins protein polymers (human MUC5B mucins) and soluble mucin glycans (human MUC5B glycans and porcine MUC5AC glycans). We find that mucins and their glycans alter the regulation of dozens of S. mutans genes, specifically downregulating competence-associated quorum sensing genes. The transcriptional responses induced by MUC5B mucins, MUC5B glycans, and MUC5AC glycans are highly correlated.

Mucosal Glycan Foraging Enhances the Fitness and Transmission of a Saccharolytic Human Distal Gut Symbiont

Project description:Gene expression profiles of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron in vitro during growth on host mucosal polysaccharides as sole carbon sources. All substrates in this series are derived from porcine gastric mucin and include mucin O-glycans and glycosaminoglycans.
