Microbial Dynamics and Biogas Production during Single and Co-digestion of Cow Dung and Rice Husk

Applied Environmental Research, 2017
Anaerobic digestion is achieved by the combined effort of hydrolytic, acetogenic and methanogenic bacteria. Microbial dynamics and biogas production during anaerobic digestion of cow dung and rice husk were studied in this research.

Engineering the Autotroph Methanococcus maripaludis for Geraniol Production

, 2016
The rapid autotrophic growth of the methanogenic archaeon Methanococcus maripaludis on H2 and CO2 makes it an attractive microbial chassis to inexpensively produce biochemicals. To explore this potential, a synthetic gene encoding geraniol synthase (GES)

The archaeal RNA chaperone TRAM0076 shapes the transcriptome and optimizes the growth of Methanococcus maripaludis.

PLoS Genetics, 2019
TRAM is a conserved domain among RNA modification proteins that are widely distributed in various organisms. In Archaea, TRAM occurs frequently as a standalone protein with in vitro RNA chaperone activity; however, its biological significance and ...

Structural characterization of Methanococcus adenylate kinases

, 2002
The crystal structures of adenylate kinases from the mesophile Methanococcus voltae (37°C) and the thermophile M. thermolithotrophicus (65°C) have been solved to 2.5 A resolution using molecular replacement methods.

Methanococcus jannaschii Generates l- Proline by Cyclization of l- Ornithine

, 2001
Cell extracts of Methanococcus jannaschii have been shown to readily convert l- ornithine to l- proline. This cyclization reaction proceeds with the loss of only the C-2 nitrogen, as

Formation and regeneration of Methanococcus voltae protoplasts

, 1993
Methanococcus voltae cells were converted into protoplasts by suspension in anaerobic 0.1 M Tris-HCl buffer containing 0.4 M sucrose and 0.05 M NaCl as osmoprotectants. Protoplast formation was monitored microscopically by observing the conversion of the
