Storage of the vital metal tungsten in a dominant SCFA-producing human gut microbe Eubacterium limosum and implications for other gut microbes

ABSTRACT Enzymes containing tungsten rather than the ubiquitous and analogous element molybdenum are prevalent in the human gut microbiome, especifically in microbes that contribute to overall gut health. Eubacterium limosum is a dominant human gut organism whose production of beneficial short-chain...
