Bacterial flora in the human gut does not digest most of the proteins we get in the diet; this is primarily done by human digestive enzymes. Bacterial flora is involved in the synthesis of vitamin K, production of gases found in flatus, digestion of cellulose (which humans cannot digest with their own enzymes), and formation of part of the feces.
