Shared Reference Notes
- [1.11]
- The latter established a genetic and biochemical basis in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron for the bioactivation of broccoli-derived glucosinolates into chemopreventative isothiocyanates - [1.9]
- Inositol, a carbocyclic sugar abundant in eukaryotes, forms the basis for diverse phosphorylated secondary messenger inositol phosphates and inositol lipids.
- Inositol lipids are ubiquitous in eukaryotes and have finely tuned roles in cellular signalling and membrane homoeostasis.
- In Bacteria, however, inositol lipid production is relatively rare.
- Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (BT) was reported to produce inositol lipids and sphingolipids (and Bacteroides ovatus).
