Growth and activity of ANME clades with different sulfate and sulfide concentrations in presence of methane [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Extensive geochemical data showed that significant methane oxidation activity exists in marine sediments. The organisms responsible for this activity are anaerobic methane-oxidizing archaea (ANME) that occur in consortia with sulfate-reducing bacteria. A

Atomic resolution structures of the methane-activating enzyme in anaerobic methanotrophy reveal extensive post-translational modifications [PDF]

Nature Communications
Anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) are crucial to planetary carbon cycling. They oxidise methane in anoxic niches by transferring electrons to nitrate, metal oxides, or sulfate-reducing bacteria.

Drivers of methane-cycling archaeal abundances, community structure, and catabolic pathways in continental margin sediments [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
Marine sediments contain Earth’s largest reservoir of methane, with most of this methane being produced and consumed in situ by methane-cycling archaea. While numerous studies have investigated communities of methane-cycling archaea in hydrocarbon seeps ...

Methane cycling microorganisms drive seasonal variation of methane emission in mangrove ecosystems [PDF]

Environmental Microbiome
Coastal mangroves are one of the significant hotspots of natural methane (CH4) emissions, yet the seasonal dynamics of these emissions and the underlying microbial drivers remain poorly understood.

The Mechanism of Sodium Sulfate Coupled with Anaerobic Methane Oxidation Mitigating Methane Production in Beef Cattle [PDF]

Microorganisms
The aim of this experiment is to explore the effect of sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) on methane reduction in the rumen, and its impact on anaerobic methane-oxidizing archaea (ANME).

Methane-Fueled Syntrophy through Extracellular Electron Transfer: Uncovering the Genomic Traits Conserved within Diverse Bacterial Partners of Anaerobic Methanotrophic Archaea [PDF]

mBio, 2017
The anaerobic oxidation of methane by anaerobic methanotrophic (ANME) archaea in syntrophic partnership with deltaproteobacterial sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is the primary mechanism for methane removal in ocean sediments.

Microbial Communities in and Around the Siboglinid Tubeworms from the South Yungan East Ridge Cold Seep Offshore Southwestern Taiwan at the Northern South China Sea [PDF]

Microorganisms
To date, only a few microbial community studies of cold seeps at the South China Sea (SCS) have been reported. The cold seep dominated by tubeworms was discovered at South Yungan East Ridge (SYER) offshore southwestern Taiwan by miniROV.

Developing a microfluidic‐based epicPCR reveals diverse potential hosts of the mcrA gene in marine cold seep [PDF]

mLife
Anaerobic methanotrophic (ANME) microbes play a crucial role in the bioprocess of anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM). However, due to their unculturable status, their diversity is poorly understood.

Diversity of Anaerobic Methane Oxidizers in the Cold Seep Sediments of the Okinawa Trough

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Active cold seeps in the Okinawa Trough (OT) have been widely identified, but the sediment microbial communities associated with these sites are still poorly understood.

Comparative genomics reveals electron transfer and syntrophic mechanisms differentiating methanotrophic and methanogenic archaea.

PLoS Biology, 2022
The anaerobic oxidation of methane coupled to sulfate reduction is a microbially mediated process requiring a syntrophic partnership between anaerobic methanotrophic (ANME) archaea and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB).
