β-Glucuronidases of opportunistic bacteria are the major contributors to xenobiotic-induced toxicity in the gut
Abstract Gut bacterial β-D-glucuronidases (GUSs) catalyze the removal of glucuronic acid from liver-produced β-D-glucuronides. These reactions can have deleterious consequences when they reverse xenobiotic metabolism. The human gut contains hundreds of GUSs of variable sequences and structures. To u...
