The origin of aerobic methanotrophy within the Proteobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2019
ABSTRACTAerobic methanotrophs play critical roles in the global carbon cycle, but despite their environmental ubiquity, they are phylogenetically restricted. Via bioinformatic analyses, it is shown that methanotrophy likely arose from methylotrophy from the lateral gene transfer of either of the two known forms of methane monooxygenase (particulate and

Methanogenesis and methanotrophy within a Sphagnum peatland [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 1995
Abstract Methane production and consumption activities were examined in a Massachusetts peatland. Peat from depths of 5–35 cm incubated under anaerobic conditions, produced an average of 2 nmol CH4 g−1 h−1 with highest rates for peat fractions between 25–30 cm depth. Extracted microbial nucleic acids showed the strongest relative hybridization with a

Metals and Methanotrophy [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2018
ABSTRACT Aerobic methanotrophs have long been known to play a critical role in the global carbon cycle, being capable of converting methane to biomass and carbon dioxide. Interestingly, these microbes exhibit great sensitivity to copper and rare-earth elements, with the expression of key genes involved in the central pathway of methane ...

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

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
AbstractPrevious stable isotope and biomarker evidence has indicated that methanotrophy is an important pathway in the microbial loop of freshwater ecosystems, despite the low cell abundance of methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) and the low methane concentrations relative to the more abundant dissolved organic carbon (DOC).

Metabolic Aspects of Aerobic Obligate Methanotrophy⋆

Advances in Applied Microbiology, 2008
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the metabolic aspects of aerobic obligate methanotrophy. Aerobic methanotrophs are a unique group of gram-negative bacteria that use methane as carbon and energy source. Methanotrophs have been studied intensively over the past 40 years since these bacteria possess significant metabolic potential for practical

Difluoromethane, a New and Improved Inhibitor of Methanotrophy [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT Difluoromethane (HFC-32; DFM) is compared to acetylene and methyl fluoride as an inhibitor of methanotrophy in cultures and soils. DFM was found to be a reversible inhibitor of CH 4 oxidation by Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath). Consumption of CH 4 in

Anaerobic methanotrophy and the rise of atmospheric oxygen

Philosophical Transactions Series A, Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences, 2007
In modern marine sediments, the anoxic decomposition of organic matter generates a significant flux of methane that is oxidized microbially with sulphate under the seafloor and never reaches the atmosphere. In contrast, prior to ca 2.4 Gyr ago, the ocean had little sulphate to support anaerobic oxidation of methane (

Life in the extreme: thermoacidophilic methanotrophy

Trends in Microbiology, 2008
Aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs) have a key role in the global carbon cycle, converting methane to biomass and carbon dioxide. Although these bacteria have been isolated from many environments, until recently, it was not known if they survived, much less thrived in thermoacidic environments, that is, locations with pH values of ...
