[edit] Interesting enzyme

There is an upcoming article in Nature journal about an enzyme(?) found to be produced by B. fragilis which seems to be able to cleave human blood group A and B marker proteins from erythrocyte surfaces. Someone might want to read this ref and work it into the text. Dysmorodrepanis 12:15, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
