Atmosphere, 2020 Methane (CH4) emission and environmental controls of CH4-cycling microorganisms are unclear in inland floodplains. Here, we examined soil CH4 emissions and the community composition of CH4-cycling microorganisms under three vegetation types—mudflat (MF ...

mBio, 2022 Methanotrophs require copper for their activity as it plays a critical role in the oxidation of methane to methanol. To sequester copper, some methanotrophs secrete a copper-binding compound termed methanobactin (MB).

Macroecology of methane-oxidizing bacteria: the β-diversity of pmoA genotypes in tropical and subtropical rice paddies [PDF]
, 2013 Studies addressing microbial biogeography have increased during the past decade, but research on microbial distribution patterns is still in its infancies, and many aspects are only poorly understood. Here, we compared the methanotroph community in paddy

Draft genome sequence of Methyloferula stellata AR4, an obligate methanotroph possessing only a soluble methane monooxygenase [PDF]
, 2015 Methyloferula stellata AR4 is an aerobic acidophilic methanotroph, which, in contrast to most known methanotrophs but similar to Methylocella spp., possesses only a soluble methane monooxygenase. However, it differs from Methylocella spp.

PLoS ONE, 2023 Biodegradable polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) can be produced from methane by some type II methanotroph such as the genus Methylocystis. This study presents the comparative genomic analysis of a newly isolated methanotroph, Methylocystis sp.

Microorganisms, 2018 Methanotrophs are a specialized group of bacteria that can utilize methane (CH4) as a sole energy source. A key enzyme responsible for methane oxidation is methane monooxygenase (MMO), of either a soluble, cytoplasmic type (sMMO), or a particulate ...

Novel Methanotrophs of the Family Methylococcaceae from Different Geographical Regions and Habitats [PDF]
, 2015 Terrestrial methane seeps and rice paddy fields are important ecosystems in the methane cycle. Methanotrophic bacteria in these ecosystems play a key role in reducing methane emission into the atmosphere.

Genomic Reconstruction of an Uncultured Hydrothermal Vent Gammaproteobacterial Methanotroph (Family Methylothermaceae) Indicates Multiple Adaptations to Oxygen Limitation [PDF]
, 2015 Hydrothermal vents are an important contributor to marine biogeochemistry, producing large volumes of reduced fluids, gasses, and metals and housing unique, productive microbial and animal communities fueled by chemosynthesis.
