In this context, we have tailored an 27 acetylated galactoglucomannan (AcGGM) fibre to match unique enzymatic capabilities of Roseburia 28 and Faecalibacterium species, both renowned butyrate-producing gut commensals. The accuracy of 29 AcGGM was tested within the complex endogenous gut microbiome of pigs, wherein we resolved 355 30 metagenome-assembled genomes together with quantitative metaproteomes. In AcGGM-fed pigs, 31 both target populations differentially expressed AcGGM-specific polysaccharide utilization loci, 32 including novel, mannan-specific esterases that are critical to its deconstruction. However, AcGGM- 33 inclusion also manifested a “butterfly effect”, whereby numerous metabolic changes and 34 interdependent cross-feeding pathways were detected in neighboring non-mannolytic populations 35 that produce short-chain fatty acids. Our findings show that intricate structural features and 36 acetylation patterns of dietary fibre can be customized to specific bacterial populations, with potential 37 to create greater modulatory effects at large. 38 39 MAIN TEXT 40 Microbiota-directed foods (MDFs) have emerged as a strategy to modulate the gut 41 microbiome, as diet has distinct and rapid effects on microbiome composition and function1,2. MDFs 42 by definition are not broadly metabolized, but rather elicit a targeted metabolic response in specific 43 indigenous microbiota that confers benefits to their host. This in itself presents a challenge; as many 44 newly identified MDF target organisms, such as beneficial butyrate-producing (i.e. butyrogenic) 45 Roseburia and Faecalibacterium spp.3,4, have broad metabolic capabilities that are shared with the 46 vast majority of fibre-fermenting microbiota in the gut ecosystem. Nevertheless, recent studies have 47 revealed intimate connections between the enzymatic and mechanistic features of microorganisms 48 and the glycan structures of the fibres they consume5,6, which creates new conceptual MDF targets. 2 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/799023; this version posted August 14, 2020.

It is made available under aCC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 International license. 49 This is exemplified by discoveries of sophisticated polysaccharide-degrading apparatuses that enable 50 certain microbiota to consume fibre in a “selfish” manner, whereby complex glycan-structures (such 51 as β-mannans) are cleaved into large oligosaccharides at the cell surface, which are subsequently 52 transported into the cell and depolymerized into monomeric sugars5,7,8. Such a mechanism restricts 53 the release of sugars into the ecosystem for neighboring scavenging populations, thus giving a 54 selective metabolic advantage to the selfish-degrader in the presence of these highly complex glycans. 55 Beta-mannans are present in human and livestock diets, and depending on their plant origins, can 56 be heavily decorated with varying amounts of acetylation that protect the fibre from enzymatic 57 degradation9. We recently demonstrated that the human gut commensal Roseburia intestinalis 58 encodes a mannan-specific polysaccharide utilization locus (PUL), and “selfishly” converts highly 59 complex mannan substrates to butyrate5. Within this mannan PUL, a carbohydrate esterase (CE) family 60 2 (RiCE2) removes 3-O-, and 6-O- acetylations on mannan, whereas a novel CE family 17 (RiCE17) 61 removes the axially oriented 2-O-hydroxyl acetylations9, which are distinctive features found in limited 62 mannan moieties and inaccessible to most of the characterized bacterial esterases present in the gut 63 microbiome. Closer genome examinations have revealed that putative CE2/CE17-containing mannan 64 PULs are in fact prominent within many butyrate-producers including Roseburia spp., 65 Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Ruminococcus gnavus, Coprococcus eutactus and Butyrivibrio 66 fibrisolvens5,10. It is well known that the metabolic attributes of these populations are highly desirable 67 in the gastrointestinal tract, and that their depletion is implicated in colorectal cancer, Crohn’s disease, 68 inflammatory bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, forms of dermatitis and several other diseases11,12. 69 These collective findings thus raised the question: could a custom MDF fibre that was tailored to match 70 these specialized enzymatic capabilities selectively engage butyrate-producers in a complex 71 microbiome ecosystem? 72 2-O-acetylated mannans are found in a limited number of characterized western dietary fibre 73 sources (i.e. tomatoes13 and coffee5), however 2-O-acetylations are present in acetylated 3 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/799023; this version posted August 14, 2020.

Here, we have utilized controlled steam explosion (SE), followed by 76 ultrafiltration (UF) fractionation to extract complex AcGGM from spruce wood. Processing conditions 77 were selected to tailor the fibre with a high degree of galactose branching’s and 2-O-, 3-O- and 6-O- 78 acetylations15, which is amenable to inclusion as an MDF in animal feed production. Previously, the 79 MDF concept has matched polysaccharides with Bacteroides-encoded PULs to demonstrate the 80 creation of exclusive metabolic niches1,16. In particular, Shepherd et al engrafted exogenous strains in 81 mice via their rare PUL-encoded enzymatic capabilites16, whereas Patnode et al1 illustrated that 82 bioactive carbohydrates were found to target particular Bacteroides species in a defined consortium 83 of 20 human gut microbial species in gnotobiotic mice. However, what is less understood from MDF 84 studies to date, is (1) can the MDF concept be applied to target indigenous populations within a 85 complex endogenous microbiome, and (2) what are the broader secondary community effects if a 86 targeted population is stimulated, i.e. are new niches created and/or existing ones closed? 87 Here, we tested whether our AcGGM fibre could specifically target beneficial Firmicutes 88 species Roseburia and Faecalibacterium within a “real-world” gut ecosystem that consists of 100- 89 1000’s of different species. To do this, we fed weaned piglets diets containing varying AcGGM levels 90 over a 28-day period that extended from their first meal after sow separation until an adapted, fibre- 91 degrading microbiome was established. Temporal changes in the microbiome were monitored using 92 metagenomics, which phylogenetically and functionally resolved the genomes of indigenous 93 microbiota. Finally, quantitative metaproteomic analysis and carbohydrate microarrays were used to 94 visualize the metabolic and enzymatic responses of the different microbiota to the varying AcGGM 95 exposure. This approach demonstrates how the activity of specific beneficial microbiota can be 96 directly stimulated while simultaneously deciphering the secondary, trophic effects on other 97 populations and metabolic

Fomenky1,2, Duy N. Do1,3, Guylaine Talbot1, Johanne Chiquette1, Nathalie Bissonnette 1, Yvan P. Chouinard2, Martin Lessard1 & Eveline M. Ibeagha-Awemu 1 This study investigated the efect of supplementing the diet of calves with two direct fed microbials (DFMs) (Saccharomyces cerevisiae boulardii CNCM I-1079 (SCB) and Lactobacillus acidophilus BT1386 (LA)), and an antibiotic growth promoter (ATB). Thirty-two dairy calves were fed a control diet (CTL) supplemented with SCB or LA or ATB for 96 days. On day 33 (pre-weaning, n = 16) and day 96 (post- weaning, n = 16), digesta from the rumen, ileum, and colon, and mucosa from the ileum and colon were collected. The bacterial diversity and composition of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of pre- and post-weaned calves were characterized by sequencing the V3-V4 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene. The DFMs had signifcant impact on bacteria community structure with most changes associated with treatment occurring in the pre-weaning period and mostly in the ileum but less impact on bacteria diversity. Both SCB and LA signifcantly reduced the potential pathogenic bacteria genera, Streptococcus and Tyzzerella_4 (FDR ≤ 8.49E-06) and increased the benefcial bacteria, Fibrobacter (FDR ≤ 5.55E-04) compared to control. Other potential benefcial bacteria, including Rumminococcaceae UCG 005, Roseburia and Olsenella, were only increased (FDR ≤ 1.30E-02) by SCB treatment compared to control.

  • The Human Gut Firmicute Roseburia Intestinalis Is a Primary Degrader of Dietary Β-Mannans

Here, we show that the prominent butyrate-producing Firmicute Roseburia intestinalis expresses two loci conferring metabolism of β-mannans. We combine multi-“omic” analyses and detailed biochemical studies to comprehensively characterize loci-encoded proteins that are involved in β-mannan capturing, importation, de-branching and degradation into monosaccharides. In mixed cultures, R. intestinalis shares the available β-mannan with Bacteroides ovatus, demonstrating that the apparatus allows coexistence in a competitive environment. In murine experiments, β- mannan selectively promotes beneficial gut bacteria, exemplified by increased R. intestinalis, and reduction of mucus-degraders. Our findings highlight that R. intestinalis is a primary degrader of this dietary fiber and that this metabolic capacity could be exploited to selectively promote key members of the healthy microbiota using β-mannan-based therapeutic interventions. 1 Faculty of Chemistry, Biotechnology and Food Science, Norwegian University of Life Sciences, Aas N-1433 Norge, Norway. 2 Dept. of Biotechnology and Biomedicine, Danish Technical University, Kgs.

However, there are challenges in identifying reliable microbial predictors of host phenotype; environmental factors impact the microbe–host interplay, sequential differences along the intestine result in segment-specific FE- and growth-associated taxa/functionality, and it is often difficult to distinguish cause and effect. However, bacterial taxa involved in nutrient processing and energy harvest, and those with anti-inflammatory effects, are consistently linked with improved productivity. In particular, evidence is emerging for an association of Treponema and methanogens such as Methanobrevibacter in the small and large intestines and Lactobacillus in the large intestine with a leaner phenotype and/or improved FE. Bacterial carbohydrate and/or lipid metabolism pathways are also generally enriched in the large intestine of leaner pigs and/or those with better growth/FE.
