Methyl-Coenzyme M Reductase and Its Post-translational Modifications
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 The methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) is a central enzyme in anaerobic microbial methane metabolism, which consists of methanogenesis and anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM).

In situ benthic fluxes from an intermittently active mud volcano at the Costa Rica convergent margin [PDF]
, 2005 Along the erosive convergent margin off Costa Rica a large number of mound-shaped structures exist built by mud diapirism or mud volcanism. One of these, Mound 12, an intermittently active mud volcano, currently emits large amounts of aqueous dissolved ...

Environment International, 2019 It has been reported that microbial reduction of sulfate, nitrite/nitrate and iron/manganese could be coupled with anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM), which plays a significant role in controlling methane emission from anoxic niches. However, little is

Chemotrophic Microbial Mats and Their Potential for Preservation in the Rock Record [PDF]
, 2009 Putative microbialites are commonly regarded to have formed in association with photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria. However, many modern microbial mat ecosystems are dominated by chemotrophic bacteria and archaea.

Artificial electron acceptors decouple archaeal methane oxidation from sulfate reduction [PDF]
, 2016 The oxidation of methane with sulfate is an important microbial metabolism in the global carbon cycle. In marine methane seeps, this process is mediated by consortia of anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) that live in syntrophy with sulfate-reducing ...

Anaerobic Oxidization of Methane in a Minerotrophic Peatland: Enrichment of Nitrite-Dependent Methane-Oxidizing Bacteria [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012 ABSTRACT The importance of anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) as a methane sink in freshwater systems is largely unexplored, particularly in peat ecosystems. Nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (n-damo) was recently discovered and reported to be catalyzed by the bacterium “ Candidatus ...

Enzymes involved in the anaerobic oxidation of n-alkanes: from methane to long-chain paraffins
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 Anaerobic microorganisms play key roles in the biogeochemical cycling of methane and non-methane alkanes. To date, there appear to be at least three proposed mechanisms of anaerobic methane oxidation (AOM). The first pathway is mediated by consortia of
