A CAZYme-driven metabolic network supports carbohydrate cycling in the deep sea sediments of Bay of Bengal
We performed Illumina-based shotgun metagenomic sequencing to characterize microbial communities from sediments collected at a depth of 1000 m off the Andhra Pradesh coast, India. We have conducted functional annotation using the KEGG database, carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) profiling, andWe identified encoding key enzymes involved in the degradation of complex polysaccharides.
