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

Millimetre-Scale Stratification of Microbial Communities in Hydrothermal Sediments. [PDF]
Zooming into the millimetre‐scale spatial distribution of organic molecules in hydrothermally impacted sediments using mass spectrometry imaging reveals a distinct lipid zonation with abrupt transitions at critical redox interfaces. This zonation reflects a pronounced stratification of diverse microbial communities and highlights surprisingly ...

Cold seeps on the continental margins are characterized by intense microbial activities that consume a large portion of methane by anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) through anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM).

Site F is the most vigorous cold seep known on the continental slope of the northern South China Sea. Up to now, the microbial community structures in sediments of Site F based on the high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA genes have been studied ...

Summary ANME‐1 archaea subsist on the very low energy of anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM). Most marine sediments shift from net AOM in the sulfate methane transition zone (SMTZ) to methanogenesis in the methane zone (MZ) below it. In White Oak River estuarine sediments, ANME‐1 comprised 99.5% of 16S rRNA genes

Background Bioelectrochemical methane oxidation catalysed by anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) is constrained by limited methane bioavailability as well as by slow kinetics of extracellular electron transfer (EET) of ANME.

Zonation of the active methane-cycling community in deep subsurface sediments of the Peru trench
The production and anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) by microorganisms is widespread in organic-rich deep subseafloor sediments. Yet, the organisms that carry out these processes remain largely unknown.

Sulfate-coupled anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is performed by multicellular consortia of anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) in obligate syntrophic partnership with sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB).

Integrated metagenomic and metaproteomic analyses of an ANME‐1‐dominated community in marine cold seep sediments [PDF]
Summary Sulfate‐reducing methanotrophy by anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) and sulfate‐reducing bacteria (SRB) is a major biological sink of methane in anoxic methane‐enriched marine sediments. The physiology of a microbial community dominated by free‐living ANME‐1 at 14–16 cm below the seafloor in the G11 ...
