Taxonomy and Halotolerance of Mesophilic Methanosarcina Strains, Assignment of Strains to Species, and Synonymy of Methanosarcina mazei and Methanosarcina frisia [PDF]
International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1992 We examined 22 previously described and newly isolated Methanosarcina strains by performing denaturing gel electrophoresis of whole-cell proteins and assigned these strains to previously described species. Methanosarcina mazei S-6T (T = type strain) and Methanosarcina frisia C 16T were very similar in terms of the electrophoresis patterns of their ...

Gut archaea associated with bacteria colonization and succession during piglet weaning transitions
BMC Veterinary Research, 2022 Background Host-associated gut microbial communities are key players in shaping the fitness and health of animals. However, most current studies have focused on the gut bacteria, neglecting important gut fungal and archaeal components of these ...

Characterization of Methanosarcina barkeri MST and 227, Methanosarcina mazei S-6T, and Methanosarcina vacuolata Z-761T [PDF]
International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1991 Members of the genus Methanosarcina are recognized as major aceticlastic methanogens, and several species which thrive in low-salt, pH-neutral culture medium at mesophilic temperatures have been described. However, the environmental conditions which support the fastest growth of these species (Methanosarcina barkeri MST [T = type strain] and 227 ...

Differences in Hydrogenase Gene Expression between Methanosarcina acetivorans and Methanosarcina barkeri [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2009 ABSTRACT Methanosarcina acetivorans C2A encodes three putative hydrogenases, including one cofactor F 420 -linked ( frh ) and two methanophenazine-linked ( vht ) enzymes.

Transfer of Methanococcus frisius to the Genus Methanosarcina as Methanosarcina frisia comb. nov. [PDF]
International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1989 Several methanogenic bacteria that utilize methanol, acetate, or methylamines have been isolated from marine habitats, including Methanococcus frisius. However, the 1984 description by Mah and Kuhn of the genus Methanococcus excludes methylotrophic methanebacteria such as Methanococcus frisius.

Anaerobic Production of Isoprene by Engineered Methanosarcina Species Archaea
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2021 A significant barrier to implementing renewable chemical technologies is high production costs relative to those for petroleum-derived products. Existing technologies using engineered organisms have difficulty competing with petroleum-derived chemicals ...
