Exploring the aerobic methanotrophs community in the Red Sea Atlantis II deep brine area [PDF]

, 2021
Methane represents one of the most abundant hydrocarbons on earth and a powerful greenhouse gas. Methane oxidation by microbial consortia contributes positively to the environment by decreasing methane emission to the atmosphere from different ecosystems.

Light-Dependent Aerobic Methane Oxidation Reduces Methane Emissions from Seasonally Stratified Lakes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Lakes are a natural source of methane to the atmosphere and contribute significantly to total emissions compared to the oceans. Controls on methane emissions from lake surfaces, particularly biotic processes within anoxic hypolimnia, are only partially ...

Diverse electron sources support denitrification under hypoxia in the obligate methanotroph Methylomicrobium album strain BG8

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria are a diverse group of microorganisms that are ubiquitous in natural environments. Along with anaerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria and archaea, aerobic methanotrophs are critical for attenuating emission of methane to ...

Multiple Groups of Methanotrophic Bacteria Mediate Methane Oxidation in Anoxic Lake Sediments

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Freshwater lakes represent an important source of the potent greenhouse gas methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. Methane emissions are regulated to large parts by aerobic (MOx) and anaerobic (AOM) oxidation of methane, which are important CH4 sinks in lakes.

Bioremediation via Methanotrophy: Overview of Recent Findings and Suggestions for Future Research

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011
Microbially-mediated bioremediation of polluted sites has been a subject of much research over the past 30 years, with many different compounds shown to be degraded under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

Diversity and habitat preferences of cultivated and uncultivated aerobic methanotrophic bacteria evaluated based on pmoA as molecular marker

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Methane-oxidizing bacteria are characterized by their capability to grow on methane as sole source of carbon and energy. Cultivation-dependent and –independent methods have revealed that this functional guild of bacteria comprises a substantial diversity

Resource availability governs polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) accumulation and diversity of methanotrophic enrichments from wetlands

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Aquatic environments account for half of global CH4 emissions, with freshwater wetlands being the most significant contributors. These CH4 fluxes can be partially offset by aerobic CH4 oxidation driven by methanotrophs.

Nitrous oxide act as an alternative electron acceptor for microbial methane oxidation in oxygen-deficient microcosms

Geoderma
Submerged paddy is a hotspot of nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) emission, which is typically considered electron donor and acceptor for microbes, respectively.

Multiheme hydroxylamine oxidoreductases produce NO during ammonia oxidation in methanotrophs [PDF]

, 2020
Aerobic and nitrite-dependent methanotrophs make a living from oxidizing methane via methanol to carbon dioxide. In addition, these microorganisms cometabolize ammonia due to its structural similarities to methane.
