Methanogens

1991
Abstract Methanogenic bacteria are a morphologically diverse group of bacteria unified by their ability to produce methane. This property has been used to distinguish these bacteria from the other groups of anaerobic bacteria.

Molecular Biology of Methanogens

Annual Review of Microbiology, 1992
Methanogens are a very diverse group of the Archaea (Archaebacteria). Their genomic DNAs range from 26 to 68 mol% G+C; they exhibit all known prokaryotic morphologies and inhabit anaerobic environments as varied as the human gut and deep-sea volcanic vents.

Methanotrophs and Methanogens in Masonry

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT Methanotrophs were present in 48 of 225 stone samples which were removed from 19 historical buildings in Germany and Italy. The average cell number of methanotrophs was 20 CFU per g of stone, and their activities ranged between 11 and 42 pmol of CH 4 g of stone −1 day

Beginning Genetics with Methanogens

1982
There have been two meetings*, convened during the past year, specifically to determine how microbial genetics could be productively applied to obligately anaerobic microorganisms and to methanogenic species in particular. One of us (JNR) attended both of these meetings.

Proton Translocation in Methanogens

2011
Methanogenic archaea of the genus Methanosarcina possess a unique type of metabolism because they use H(2)+CO(2), methylated C(1)-compounds, or acetate as energy and carbon source for growth. The process of methanogenesis is fundamental for the global carbon cycle and represents the terminal step in the anaerobic breakdown of organic matter in ...

Methanogens and Methylotrophs

2004
The Italian physicist Volta must be credited for observation that the bubbles arising at the surface of Lago Maggiore were inflammable (1776). Thirty years later, this combustible air was identified as methane (CH4), whose microbial origin was established only in 1868.

Biosynthesis of the methanogenic cofactors

2001
Our current knowledge of the pathways and genes involved in the biosynthesis of the methanogenic coenzymes methanopterin, coenzyme B, methanofuran, coenzyme F420, and coenzyme M is presented. Proposed reaction mechanisms for several of the novel reactions involved in the pathways are presented.

Techniques for Cultivating Methanogens

2011
Basic techniques for the cultivation of methanogenic archaea in anoxic media, where the O/R potential is maintained below (-) 330 mV under a pressurized atmosphere of 20% carbon dioxide, are described.

Diversity of Methanogens

2000
Methanogens are a phylogenetically distinct group of strictly anaerobic Archaea, characterized by the ability to produce methane as their major metabolic product. They are the only known organisms that produce a hydrocarbon as their catabolic end product.
