Environmental impacts on the diversity of methane-cycling microbes and their resultant function
Methane is an important anthropogenic greenhouse gas that is produced and consumed in soils by microorganisms responding to micro-environmental conditions.

Effects of copper mineralogy and methanobactin on cell growth and sMMO activity in Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b [PDF]
Controls on in situ methanotroph activity are not well understood. One potentially important parameter is copper (Cu) because it is the metal-centre of particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO), the most active enzyme for oxidizing methane to methanol ...

Methan ist neben CO2 das wichtigste Treibhausgas, dessen relatives Treibhauspotential ungefähr ein drittel höher liegt als das von CO2. Der Großteil atmosphärischen Methans wird dabei aus biogenen Methanquellen freigesetzt, zum Beispiel renaturierte Mülldeponien, Feuchtgebiete oder Reisfelder.

Genetics and molecular biology of methanotrophs [PDF]
Over the last 20 years or so, the obligate methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs) have attracted considerable interest. As they grow on a relatively cheap and abundant carbon source, they appeared ideal organisms for the production of bulk chemicals, single-cell protein and for use in biotransformations.

A comparative transcriptome analysis of the novel obligate methanotroph Methylomonas sp. DH-1 reveals key differences in transcriptional responses in C1 and secondary metabolite pathways during growth on methane and methanol [PDF]
Background: Methanotrophs play an important role in biotechnological applications, with their ability to utilize single carbon (C1) feedstock such as methane and methanol to produce a range of high-value compounds.

Draft Genome Sequence of Methylocella silvestris TVC, a Facultative Methanotroph Isolated from Permafrost [PDF]
Permafrost environments play a crucial role in global carbon and methane cycling. We report here the draft genome sequence of Methylocella silvestris TVC, a new facultative methanotroph strain, isolated from the Siksik Creek catchment in the continuous ...

Fatty Acid and Hopanoid Adaption to Cold in the Methanotroph Methylovulum psychrotolerans
Three strains of aerobic psychrotolerant methanotrophic bacteria Methylovulum psychrotolerans, isolated from geographically remote low-temperature environments in Northern Russia, were grown at three different growth temperatures, 20, 10 and 4°C and were
