Ruminococcus ⇒ Ruminococcus bromii {10000596} Record Keys Parent:Ruminococcus Definition:Ruminococcus bromii Details Initialisation date:[ ] Meta Information Rank: Species Domain: Bacteria Zone:[ ] Enzyme:[ ] Function:[ ] Notes: [ ]Shared Reference Notes [1.1] [#Cancer] - #Castalagin binds to Ruminococcus bromii and promoted an anticancer response. [1.2] [#Crohn’s disease, #Inflamatory bowel disease] - CD-HPA microbiota from colonized mice was characterized by a decrease in known beneficial #Bacteria such as #Akkermansia muciniphila, #Alistipes putredinis, and Ruminococcus bromii, previously shown to be reduced in IBD patients. [1.3] [#Resistant starch] - RS could also be degraded by Ruminococcus bromii, and #Bifidobacterium adolescentis, and also to a lesser extent by #Eubacterium rectale and #Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron. - in the mixed bacterial and fecal incubations, RS degradation is impossible in the absence of R. bromii - Ruminococcus bromii can degrade resistant starches, and several species can utilize the fermentation products of this reactionReferences Notes[ ]
