Oral vitamin B12 supplement is delivered to the distal gut, altering the corrinoid profile and selectively depleting Bacteroides in C57BL/6 mice

open access: yesGut microbes, 2019
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

Proteome adaptations of the organohalide-respiring Desulfitobacterium hafniense strain DCB-2 to various energy metabolisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
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]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol
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.

Redox potential changes during ATP‐dependent corrinoid reduction determined by redox titrations with europium(II)–DTPA

open access: yesProtein Science, 2019
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]

open access: yes, 2004
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.

Biocatalytic methylation and demethylation via a shuttle catalysis concept involving corrinoid proteins

open access: yesCommunications Chemistry, 2018
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.

Functional Expression and Characterization of a Panel of Cobalt and Iron-Dependent Nitrile Hydratases

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Nitrile hydratases (NHase) catalyze the hydration of nitriles to the corresponding amides. We report on the heterologous expression of various nitrile hydratases.

Receptor uptake arrays for vitamin B12, siderophores and glycans shape bacterial communities

open access: yes, 2017
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]

open access: yes, 2019
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.
