LITERATURE
physiological function
-
Bifidobacteria are predominant bacteria present in the intestines of breast-fed infants and offer important health benefits for the host. alpha-L-Fucosidase AfcB play essential roles in degrading alpha1,3/4-fucosylated milk oligosaccharides, respectively, and also glycoconjugates, in the gastrointestinal tracts
