Yeasts, which have been a component of the human diet for at least 7,000 years, possess an elaborate cell wall alpha-mannan. The influence of yeast mannan on the ecology of the human microbiota is unknown. Here we show that yeast alpha-mannan is a viable food source for the Gram-negative bacterium Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant member of the microbiota. Detailed biochemical analysis and targeted gene disruption studies support a model whereby limited cleavage of alpha-mannan on the surface generates large oligosaccharides that are subsequently depolymerized to mannose by the action of periplasmic enzymes. Co-culturing studies showed that metabolism of yeast mannan by B. thetaiotaomicron presents a 'selfish' model for the catabolism of this difficult to breakdown polysaccharide. Genomic comparison with B. thetaiotaomicron in conjunction with cell culture studies show that a cohort of highly successful members of the microbiota has evolved to consume sterically-restricted yeast glycans, an adaptation that may reflect the incorporation of eukaryotic microorganisms into the human diet.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cuskin, Fiona -- Lowe, Elisabeth C -- Temple, Max J -- Zhu, Yanping -- Cameron, Elizabeth A -- Pudlo, Nicholas A -- Porter, Nathan T -- Urs, Karthik -- Thompson, Andrew J -- Cartmell, Alan -- Rogowski, Artur -- Hamilton, Brian S -- Chen, Rui -- Tolbert, Thomas J -- Piens, Kathleen -- Bracke, Debby -- Vervecken, Wouter -- Hakki, Zalihe -- Speciale, Gaetano -- Munoz-Munoz, Jose L -- Day, Andrew -- Pena, Maria J -- McLean, Richard -- Suits, Michael D -- Boraston, Alisdair B -- Atherly, Todd -- Ziemer, Cherie J -- Williams, Spencer J -- Davies, Gideon J -- Abbott, D Wade -- Martens, Eric C -- Gilbert, Harry J -- 097907/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- BB/G016127/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- GM090080/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- MOP-68913/Canadian Institutes of Health Research/Canada -- WT097907AIA/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2015 Jan 8;517(7533):165-9. doi: 10.1038/nature13995.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉1] Institute for Cell and Molecular Biosciences, Newcastle University, Newcastle-upon-Tyne NE2 4HH, UK [2] Complex Carbohydrate Research Center, The University of Georgia, 315 Riverbend Road, Athens, Georgia 30602, USA. ; Institute for Cell and Molecular Biosciences, Newcastle University, Newcastle-upon-Tyne NE2 4HH, UK. ; Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 USA. ; Department of Chemistry, University of York, York YO10 5DD, UK. ; School of Chemistry and Bio21 Molecular Science and Biotechnology Institute, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria 3010, Australia. ; Interdisciplinary Biochemistry Graduate Program, Indiana University, 800 E.
