Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Landfill gas (LFG) and leachate are commonly treated separately through energy‐intensive processes. This study evaluated the integration of both streams in an anaerobic biotrickling filter (BTF) to achieve simultaneous methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) removal coupled with ammonium (NH4+) transformation, and how the microbial ...

Generation of a transmembrane gradient of Na+ in Methanosarcina barkeri [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1987 A transmembrane Na+ gradient was generated by Methanosarcina barkeri during methanogenesis. The intracellular Na+ concentration amounted to approximately one fifth of the extracellular one. A secondary Na+/H+ antiport system was shown to be responsible for Na+ extrusion. This system could be inhibited by amiloride.

Co-occurrence of Methanosarcina mazei and Geobacteraceae in an iron(III)-reducing enrichment culture
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Methanosaeta harundinacea and Methanosarcina barkeri, known as classic acetoclastic methanogens, are capable of directly accepting electrons from Geobacter metallireducens for the reduction of carbon dioxide to methane, having been revealed as direct ...

High-rate, High Temperature Acetotrophic Methanogenesis Governed by a Three Population Consortium in Anaerobic Bioreactors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 A combination of acetate oxidation and acetoclastic methanogenesis has been previously identified to enable high-rate methanogenesis at high temperatures (55 to 65°C), but this capability had not been linked to any key organisms.

Satellites in the prokaryote world [PDF]
, 2019 Background Satellites or tandem repeats are very abundant in many eukaryotic genomes. Occasionally they have been reported to be present in some prokaryotes, but to our knowledge there is no general comparative study on their occurrence.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Characterization of anhydromevalonate phosphate decarboxylase, the UbiD‐family decarboxylase involved in the archaeal mevalonate pathway, was conducted. The enzyme is responsible for the biosynthesis of isoprenoids, such as archaeal membrane lipids, respiratory quinones, and dolichols.

A Proteasome from the Methanogenic Archaeon Methanosarcina thermophila [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1995 A 645-kDa proteasome was purified from Methanosarcina thermophila which had chymotrypsin-like and peptidylglutamyl-peptide hydrolase activities and contained alpha (24-kDa) and beta (22-kDa) subunits. Processing of both subunits was suggested by comparison of N-terminal sequences with the sequences deduced from the alpha- and beta-encoding genes (psmA ...

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Small protein MtrR is a regulator of the Mtr methyltransferase complex in Methanosarcina mazei. It binds specifically to the MtrA subunit and modulates Mtr activity in response to hydrogen (H2) availability. Deleting mtrR impairs growth in the presence but not absence of H2, indicating its role in directing methyl transfer toward an energy‐conserving ...
