AI Article Synopsis
- - The study explored the effects of a transglycosylated product (ACOD) on gut microbiota, showing that it enhances the growth of beneficial probiotics while inhibiting harmful bacteria during fecal fermentation.
- - ACOD led to significantly higher production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), particularly increasing acetic and propionic acid production compared to traditional fructoooligosaccharides (FOS).
- - The results indicate that ACOD positively alters gut microbiota composition, increasing healthy bacterial populations while reducing pathogenic ones, suggesting its potential as a prebiotic for improving gut health.
Article Abstract
This study investigated the impact of a transglycosylated product (ACOD) catalyzed by MKSR dextransucrase using sucrose as a glucosyl donor and both maltose and as acceptors on gut microbiota through fecal fermentation. ACOD promoted the growth of probiotics such as , , GG, and MKSR, while inhibiting the growth of pathogenic bacteria such as , O157:H7, , , , , , , and during independent cultivation. Fecal fermentation for 24 h revealed that ACOD significantly increased the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) compared to the blank and fructoooligosaccharide (FOS) groups. Specifically, ACOD led to a 4.5-fold increase in acetic acid production compared to FOSs and a 3.3-fold increase in propionic acid production. Both the ACOD and FOS groups exhibited higher levels of butyric acid than the blank. Notably, ACOD significantly modulated the composition of the gut microbiota by increasing the relative abundances of and decreasing and In contrast, FOSs remarkably promoted the growth of . These findings suggest that ACOD is a potential candidate for prebiotics that improve the intestinal environment by being actively used by beneficial bacteria.

Enzymatic glycosylation is an efficient and biocompatible approach to enhance natural product bioavailability. Cellobiose phosphorylase, a novel glycosyltransferase, utilizes 1-phospho-glucose (1-p-Glc) as a glycosyl donor for regioselective glycosylation of various natural substrates. However, the high cost of 1-p-Glc limits the economic feasibility of the process.
