The role of methanotrophy in the microbial carbon metabolism of temperate lakes

Nature Communications, 2022
Methane metabolism is considered of secondary importance in most lake food webs. Here the authors quantify the contribution of methanotrophs to C cycling in six lakes, finding evidence of a large role of methanotrophs due to their higher specific ...

Identification of functionally active aerobic methanotrophs and their methane oxidation potential in sediments from the Shenhu Area, South China Sea

China Geology, 2022
: Large amounts of gas hydrate are distributed in the northern slope of the South China Sea, which is a potential threat of methane leakage. Aerobic methane oxidation by methanotrophs, significant methane biotransformation that occurs in sediment surface

Genomic Evidence for Simultaneous Optimization of Transcription and Translation through Codon Variants in the pmoCAB Operon of Type Ia Methanotrophs

mSystems, 2019
Understanding the interplay between genotype and phenotype is a fundamental goal of functional genomics. Methane oxidation is a microbial phenotype with global-scale significance as part of the carbon biogeochemical cycle and a sink for greenhouse gas ...

Detection of autotrophic verrucomicrobial methanotrophs in a geothermal environment using stable isotope probing

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Genomic analysis of the methanotrophic verrucomicrobium Methylacidiphilum infernorum strain V4 has shown that most pathways conferring its methanotrophic lifestyle are similar to those found in proteobacterial methanotrophs.

Molecular ecology of facultative methanotrophs [PDF]

, 2010
Methylocella spp. are facultative methanotrophs, able to grow not only on one carbon molecules e.g., methane or methanol, but also on multi-carbon compounds e.g., acetate, succinate and malate.

The Proteobacterial Methanotroph Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b Remodels Membrane Lipids in Response to Phosphate Limitation

mBio, 2022
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, and its concentration has continued to increase in recent decades. Aerobic methanotrophs, bacteria that use methane as the sole carbon source, are an important biological sink for methane, and they ...

Metabolic engineering in methanotrophic bacteria [PDF]

Metabolic Engineering, 2015
Methane, as natural gas or biogas, is the least expensive source of carbon for (bio)chemical synthesis. Scalable biological upgrading of this simple alkane to chemicals and fuels can bring new sustainable solutions to a number of industries with large environmental footprints, such as natural gas/petroleum production, landfills, wastewater treatment ...

Recurrence and frequency of disturbance have cumulative effect on methanotrophic activity, abundance, and community structure.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Alternate prolonged drought and heavy rainfall is predicted to intensify with global warming. Desiccation-rewetting events alter the soil quality and nutrient concentrations which drive microbial-mediated processes, including methane oxidation, a key ...
