Novel copper-containing membrane monooxygenases (CuMMOs) encoded by alkane-utilizing Betaproteobacteria. [PDF]
Copper-containing membrane monooxygenases (CuMMOs) are encoded by xmoCAB(D) gene clusters and catalyze the oxidation of methane, ammonia, or some short-chain alkanes and alkenes.

Increased CH4 Oxidation in Arctic Tundra Ecosystems Caused by Vegetation‐Mediated Soil Drying
In a warmer Arctic, vegetation changes can play a critical role in methane dynamics. Our results indicate that taller vegetation, shifts in species composition, and warmer air temperatures enhance soil aeration by increasing evapotranspiration, thereby promoting methane oxidation in surface soils.

Microbial CH4 and N2O consumption in acidic wetlands
Acidic wetlands are global sources of the atmospheric greenhouse gases methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). Consumption of both atmospheric gases has been observed in various acidic wetlands, but information on the microbial mechanisms underlying ...

The Particulate Methane Monooxygenase from Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath) Is a Novel Copper-containing Three-subunit Enzyme: isolation and charactization [PDF]
The particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) is known to be very difficult to study mainly due to its unusual activity instability in vitro. By cultivating Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath) under methane stress conditions and high copper levels in the ...

Microbial transformations of selenite by methane-oxidizing bacteria [PDF]
Methane oxidizing bacteria are well known for their role in the global methane cycle and their potential for microbial transformation of wide range of hydrocarbon and chlorinated hydrocarbon pollution. Recently, it has also emerged that methane-oxidizing

ABSTRACT Diverse invertebrate communities inhabiting carbonate rocks at methane seeps may rely on a mix of local chemosynthetic production and sinking photosynthetic organic matter, with relative importance shaped by environmental conditions. We investigate the contribution of chemosynthetic carbon to macrofaunal diets at six Southern California ...

Spruce Budworm Defoliation Influences Greenhouse Gas Concentrations in Streams
Abstract One of the most significant natural disturbances in the Canadian boreal and hemiboreal forest is tree defoliation by eastern spruce budworm (SBW), which may increase nutrient and carbon inputs to catchment soils, and in runoff. Closely connected to catchments, headwater streams are known to be significant emitters of greenhouse gases (GHGs ...

This mini‐review synthesises evidence on the taxonomic patterns of airborne microorganisms and the selective pressures they face. We highlight key conserved physiological traits, such as DNA repair and desiccation tolerance, which enable stress‐tolerant members to survive and suggest their potential for activity within the atmospheric environment ...

Hydroelectric reservoirs, which are expanding worldwide, are freshwater bodies that, despite being considered environmentally friendly, are important sources of methane emissions. Methane emissions vary with the availability of organic matter, especially
