Cell surface differences within the genus Methanosarcina shape interactions with the extracellular environment [PDF]
Methanosarcina are metabolically versatile methanogenic archaea that can perform extracellular electron transfer (EET), with important ecological and biotechnological implications.

Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) may be most important in methanogenic environments, but mechanistic studies of DIET to date have primarily focused on cocultures in which fumarate was the terminal electron acceptor.

Insights into the biotechnology potential of Methanosarcina
Methanogens are anaerobic archaea which conserve energy by producing methane. Found in nearly every anaerobic environment on earth, methanogens serve important roles in ecology as key organisms of the global carbon cycle, and in industry as a source of ...

Responses of Methanosarcina barkeri to acetate stress [PDF]
Background Anaerobic digestion of easily degradable biowaste can lead to the accumulation of volatile fatty acids, which will cause environmental stress to the sensitive methanogens consequently. The metabolic characteristics of methanogens under acetate

Methanosarcina acetivorans is a strictly anaerobic methane-producing archaeon (methanogen) that was isolated from marine sediment beneath a kelp bed in the Sumner branch of Scripps Canyon near La Jolla, California, in 1984. Over the years it has become a

Deconstructing Methanosarcina acetivorans into an acetogenic archaeon
Significance The reductive acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) pathway is the only carbon fixation pathway that can also be used for energy conservation like it is known for acetogenic bacteria. In methanogenic archaea, this pathway is extended with one route

Genus-specific remodeling of carbon and energy metabolism facilitates acetoclastic methanogenesis in Methanosarcina spp. and Methanothrix spp. [PDF]
Methanogenic archaea (methanogens) are microorganisms that obligately produce methane as a byproduct of their energy metabolism. While most methanogens grow on CO2+H2, isolates of the genera Methanosarcina and Methanothrix can use acetate as the sole ...

Magnetite drives microbial community restructuring and stimulates aceticlastic methanogenesis of type II Methanosarcina in mangrove sediments [PDF]
Background Mangrove wetlands are critical hotspots of methane emissions, yet the role of naturally occurring minerals in shaping their microbial communities and methanogenic processes is poorly understood.

Background The final step in the anaerobic decomposition of biopolymers is methanogenesis. Rice field soils are a major anthropogenic source of methane, with straw commonly used as a fertilizer in rice farming.
