Methylacidimicrobium thermophilum AP8, a Novel Methane- and Hydrogen-Oxidizing Bacterium Isolated From Volcanic Soil on Pantelleria Island, Italy

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The Favara Grande is a geothermal area located on Pantelleria Island, Italy. The area is characterized high temperatures in the top layer of the soil (60°C), low pH (3–5) and hydrothermal gas emissions mainly composed of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane ...

Bacteriophages of methanotrophic bacteria [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1980
Bacteriophages of methanotrophic bacteria have been found in 16 out of 88 studied samples (underground waters, pond water, soil, gas and oil installation waters, fermentor cultural fluids, bacterial paste, and rumen of cattle) taken in different geographic zones of the Soviet Union.

Switching Between Methanol Accumulation and Cell Growth by Expression Control of Methanol Dehydrogenase in Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b Mutant

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Methanotrophs have been used to convert methane to methanol at ambient temperature and pressure. In order to accumulate methanol using methanotrophs, methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) must be downregulated as it consumes methanol. Here, we describe a methanol

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.

Changes in Methane Emission and Community Composition of Methane-Cycling Microorganisms Along an Elevation Gradient in the Dongting Lake Floodplain, China

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 ...

Multiple Mechanisms for Copper Uptake by Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b in the Presence of Heterologous Methanobactin

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).

Genome-Scale Metabolic Model Reconstruction and in Silico Investigations of Methane Metabolism in Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b

Microorganisms, 2020
Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b is an obligate aerobic methane-utilizing alpha-proteobacterium. Since its isolation, M. trichosporium OB3b has been established as a model organism to study methane metabolism in type II methanotrophs. M.

A temperate river estuary is a sink for methanotrophs adapted to extremes of pH, temperature and salinity [PDF]

, 2016
River Tyne (UK) estuarine sediments harbour a genetically and functionally diverse community of methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs), the composition and activity of which were directly influenced by imposed environmental conditions (pH, salinity ...

Comparative genomic analysis of Methylocystis sp. MJC1 as a platform strain for polyhydroxybutyrate biosynthesis.

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.
