A Multifunctional Polysaccharide Utilization Gene Cluster in <italic toggle="yes">Colwellia echini</italic> Encodes Enzymes for the Complete Degradation of κ-Carrageenan, ι-Carrageenan, and Hybrid β/κ-Carrageenan

ABSTRACT Algal cell wall polysaccharides constitute a large fraction in the biomass of marine primary producers and are thus important in nutrient transfer between trophic levels in the marine ecosystem. In order for this transfer to take place, polysaccharides must be degraded into smaller mono- an...
