doi: 10.1093/glycob/cwag004
Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Heatmap showing the degradation of O- glycans released from porcine gastric mucin (PGM) after 0, 4, 8, and 24 h incubation with bacterial lysates of A. muciniphila (Am), R. torques (Rt), B. thetaiotaomicron (Bt), co-cultures thereof (AmRt, AmBt, RtBt, and AmRtBt), and the MDSC after growth on PGM for 12 h (average of three replicates). The value at 0 h is set to 100% (log2 scale value 2) and the values at the following timepoints are shown relative to this value (log2 scale; 0 (orange) degraded and 2 or higher (blue) not degraded). (B) Bar graphs showing the relative amount of neutral, sulphated, sialylated, and fucosylated O- glycans released from PGM after 0, 4, 8, and 24 h incubation with bacterial lysates of Am, rt, Bt, AmRt, AmBt, RtBt, AmRtBt, and the MDSC after growth on PGM for 12 h. (C) Bar graphs showing the relative amount of core 1, core 2, core 3, and core 4 O- glycans released from PGM after 0, 4, 8, and 24 h incubation with bacterial lysates of Am, rt, Bt, AmRt, AmBt, RtBt, AmRtBt, and the MDSC after growth on PGM for 12 h.
