Functional Specializationof Cellular and ExtracellularFractions of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron Contributes to Glycan Utilization

Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (Bt) degrades dietary glycans via carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), but their spatial distribution and functional coordination remain unclear. In this study, we characterized the "labor division" during glycan degradation across four bacterial fr...
