Vitamin B12 is a critical nutrient for humans as well as microbes. Due to saturable uptake, high dose oral B12 supplements are largely unabsorbed and reach the distal gut where they are available to interact with the microbiota. The aim of this study was

IntroductionDesulfitobacterium hafniense was isolated for its ability to use organohalogens as terminal electron acceptors via organohalide respiration (OHR). In contrast to obligate OHR bacteria, Desulfitobacterium spp.

Isolation and characterization of a novel methanogen Methanosarcina hadiensis sp. nov. from subsurface Boom Clay pore water. [PDF]
We isolated a novel methanogenic archaeon, Methanosarcina hadiensis sp. nov. (TD41E1‐1), from Boom Clay pore water at a depth of 225 m. It exhibits unique characteristics compared to previously characterized Methanosarcina species, such as the inability to perform acetoclastic methanogenesis and the presence of extensive surface appendages.

Corrinoids are essential cofactors of enzymes involved in the C1 metabolism of anaerobes. The active, super‐reduced [CoI] state of the corrinoid cofactor is highly sensitive to autoxidation. In O‐demethylases, the oxidation to inactive [CoII] is reversed

Die Demethylierung von Dimethylselenid ist eine adaptive Antwort des Archaeons Methanococcus voltae [PDF]
Im natürlichen Lebensraum von Methanococcus voltae kommt Selen in unterschiedlichen Verbindungen und Konzentration vor. So variiert der Selengehalt im Mündungswasser verschiedener Flüsse zwischen 0,1 und 63 nM.

Synthetically established methods for methylation of phenols and demethylation of methyl phenyl ethers rely in general on hazardous reagents or/and harsh reaction conditions and are irreversible.

Receptor uptake arrays for vitamin B12, siderophores and glycans shape bacterial communities
Molecular variants of vitamin B12, siderophores and glycans occur. To take up variant forms, bacteria may express an array of receptors. The gut microbe Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron has three different receptors to take up variants of vitamin B12 and 88 ...

Insights into the Ecological Roles and Evolution of Methyl-Coenzyme M Reductase-Containing Hot Spring Archaea [PDF]
Several recent studies have shown the presence of genes for the key enzyme associated with archaeal methane/alkane metabolism, methyl-coenzyme M reductase (Mcr), in metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) divergent to existing archaeal lineages.
