Figure 3. (A) A schematic representation of the glucoronoarabinoxylan utilisation system in B. ovatus ATCC 8483. The substrate is bound by lipoproteins at the cell surface where it is primarily degraded to oligosaccharides and then transported to the periplasm where it is further hydrolysed to monosaccharides which can then be transported to the cytoplasm of the cell.
