An atlas of β-glucuronidases in the human intestinal microbiome
Open accessAbstract
Microbiome-encoded β-glucuronidase (GUS) enzymes play important roles in human health by metabolizing drugs in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The numbers, types, and diversity of these proteins in the human GI microbiome, however, remain undefined. We present an atlas of GUS enzymes comprehensive for the Human Microbiome Project GI database. We identify 3,013 total and 279 unique microbiome-encoded GUS proteins clustered into six unique structural categories. We assign their taxonomy, assess cellular localization, reveal the inter-individual variability within the 139 individuals sampled, and discover 112 novel microbial GUS enzymes. A representative in vitro panel of the most common GUS proteins by read abundances highlights structural and functional variabilities within the family, including their differential processing of smaller glucuronides and larger carbohydrates. These data provide a sequencing-to-molecular roadmap for examining microbiome-encoded enzymes essential to human health.

A recent analysis of the Human Microbiome Project gastrointestinal database revealed a total of 3013 microbiome-encoded beta-glucuronidases, which clustered into structural categories with differing functional capacities for various glucuronide substrates.
“A recent analysis of the Human Microbiome Project gastrointestinal database is instructive on the complexity of this metabolic function, revealing a total of 3013 microbiome-encoded b-glucuronidases, which clustered into structural categories with differing functional capacities for various glucuronide substrates (Pollet et al., 2017).”

Microbial enzymes such as b-glucuronidases can differ in substrate selectivity and activity depending on the bacteria from which they arise.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
