Influence of soil management for soybean production under microbial diversity in amazon soils
The tropical Amazon has a unique biodiversity that has been affected by the development of pastures and economically important crops, such as soybeans. In the Amazon soil, the communities of microorganisms are diverse and act in different biogeochemical ...

Co-occurrence of Methanosarcina mazei and Geobacteraceae in an iron(III)-reducing enrichment culture
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 ...

Energy-converting [NiFe] hydrogenases in archaea and bacteria: insights into the energy-transducing mechanism [PDF]
In recent years a group of multisubunit membrane-bound [NiFe] hydrogenases has been identified in a variety of anaerobic or facultative anaerobic microorganisms.

Cobalamin‐dependent aryl methyl ether O‐demethylases have high potential for biocatalytic applications, including lignin valorization and synthetic chemistry. In this review, we provide a detailed overview of such O‐demethylase systems identified to date from various microorganisms, including their mechanism, substrate scope and selectivity, and ...

Purification and properties of 5,10-methenyltetrahydromethanopterin cyclohydrolase from Methanosarcina barkeri [PDF]
The 5,10-methenyltetrahydromethanopterin cyclohydrolase from Methanosarcina barkeri was purified 313-fold to a specific activity of 470 mumol min-1 mg-1 at 37 degrees C and pH 7.8. At this stage, the enzyme was pure as judged from polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Formation of zero-valent iron in iron-reducing cultures of Methanosarcina barkeri.
Methanogenic archaea have been shown to reduce iron from ferric [Fe(III)] to ferrous [Fe(II)] state, but minerals that form during iron reduction by different methanogens remain to be characterized.

Role of formate in methanogenesis from xylan by CELLULOMONAS sp. associated with methanogens and DESULFOVIBRIO VULGARIS : inhibition of the aceticlastic reaction [PDF]
Different methanogenic defined mixed cultures, including CELLULOMONAS sp. strain ATCC21399 as a hydrolytic and fermentative bacterium, were used to show that methane production could proceed from larchwood xylan as well as from cellulose.

Current understanding of electroautotrophy and its relevance in astrobiology‐related research
Abstract Electroautotrophy—the use of extracellular electrons as the primary energy source for autotrophic metabolism—remains understudied compared to photoautotrophy and chemoautotrophy. Its occurrence in deep‐earth and deep‐sea environments suggests profound implications for astrobiology, yet electroautotrophic microorganisms remain poorly explored ...
