Atribacteria Reproducing over Millions of Years in the Atlantic Abyssal Subseafloor

open access: yesmBio, 2020
How microbial metabolism is translated into cellular reproduction under energy-limited settings below the seafloor over long timescales is poorly understood.

Metabolic Potential for Reductive Acetogenesis and a Novel Energy-Converting [NiFe] Hydrogenase in Bathyarchaeia From Termite Guts – A Genome-Centric Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Symbiotic digestion of lignocellulose in the hindgut of higher termites is mediated by a diverse assemblage of bacteria and archaea. During a large-scale metagenomic study, we reconstructed 15 metagenome-assembled genomes of Bathyarchaeia that represent ...

Single-Cell Genomics Reveals a Diverse Metabolic Potential of Uncultivated Desulfatiglans-Related Deltaproteobacteria Widely Distributed in Marine Sediment

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Desulfatiglans-related organisms comprise one of the most abundant deltaproteobacterial lineages in marine sediments where they occur throughout the sediment column in a gradient of increasing sulfate and organic carbon limitation with depth ...

Enrichment of homoacetogens converting H2/CO2 into acids and ethanol and simultaneous methane production

open access: yesEngineering in Life Sciences, 2023
An anaerobic granular sludge was enriched to utilize H2/CO2 in a continuous gas‐fed up‐flow anaerobic sludge reactor by applying operating conditions expected to produce acetic acid, butyric acid, and ethanol.

Mitigating methane emissions and promoting acetogenesis in ruminant livestock

open access: yesFrontiers in Animal Science
Through enteric fermentation, ruminants convert fibrous biomass into high-quality proteins like meat and milk. In this process however, methanogenic archaea in the ruminant gastrointestinal tract produce methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from the by ...

Homo-Acetogens: Their Metabolism and Competitive Relationship with Hydrogenotrophic Methanogens

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Homo-acetogens are microbes that have the ability to grow on gaseous substrates such as H2/CO2/CO and produce acetic acid as the main product of their metabolism through a metabolic process called reductive acetogenesis.

Genome-based metabolic and phylogenomic analysis of three Terrisporobacter species.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Acetogenic bacteria are of high interest for biotechnological applications as industrial platform organisms, however, acetogenic strains from the genus Terrisporobacter have hitherto been neglected.

Acidogenic fermentation of pretreated food waste under psychrophilic conditions for volatile fatty acids production

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Mixed‐culture fermentation generally produces volatile fatty acids (VFAs) as a mixture of C2–C6 acids. Among operational parameters, temperature has a distinct effect on the microorganisms' metabolic activity, which can shift the composition of the metabolites.
