• Carbohydrate metabolism in Bifidobacteria (2011, background): “Retaining glycoside hydrolases use a double displacement mechanism to catalyze hydrolysis with retention of configuration at the anomeric center, which can also yield elongated oligosaccharides with new types of linkages, a reaction which is termed transglycosylation [163]; Fig.”
