Do microbes reinvent their metabolism when shifting ecosystems? 🌊ðŸ¦
Marine and gut Akkermansiaceae share conserved glycan uptake. Ecological transitions may reflect substrate specialization on an inherited framework. @mpimarinemicrobio.bsky.social @erc.europa.eu #microsky
Abstract. Elucidating interaction mechanisms and substrate specialization is central to understanding bacterial adaptation across ecological niches. Specia
