The Microbiome and Occurrence of Methanotrophy in Carnivorous Sponges [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
As shown by recent studies, filter-feeding sponges are known to host a wide variety of microorganisms. However, the microbial community of the non-filtering carnivorous sponges (Porifera, Cladorhizidae) has been the subject of less scrutiny. Here, we present the results from a comparative study of the methanotrophic carnivorous sponge Cladorhiza ...

Methanotrophy by a Mycobacterium species that dominates a cave microbial ecosystem [PDF]

Nature Microbiology, 2022
So far, only members of the bacterial phyla Proteobacteria and Verrucomicrobia are known to grow methanotrophically under aerobic conditions. Here we report that this metabolic trait is also observed within the Actinobacteria. We enriched and cultivated a methanotrophic Mycobacterium from an extremely acidic biofilm growing on a cave wall at a gaseous ...

Methanotrophy - Environmental, Industrial and Medical Applications [PDF]

Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2019
Aerobic methanotrophs are an intriguing group of microbes with the singular ability to consume methane as their sole source of carbon and energy. As such, methanotrophs are receiving increased attention to control methane emissions to limit future climate change. Methanotrophs have a wide range of other applications, including pollutant remediation and

Alpha- and Gammaproteobacterial Methanotrophs Codominate the Active Methane-Oxidizing Communities in an Acidic Boreal Peat Bog [PDF]

, 2016
The objective of this study was to characterize metabolically active, aerobic methanotrophs in an ombrotrophic peatland in the Marcell Experimental Forest, Minnesota, USA.

Methanotrophy across a natural permafrost thaw environment [PDF]

The ISME Journal, 2018
Abstract The fate of carbon sequestered in permafrost is a key concern for future global warming as this large carbon stock is rapidly becoming a net methane source due to widespread thaw. Methane release from permafrost is moderated by methanotrophs, which oxidise 20–60% of this methane before emission to the atmosphere.

Anomalous negative excursion of carbon isotope in organic carbon after the last Paleoproterozoic glaciation in North America [PDF]

, 2010
Early Paleoproterozoic time (2.5–2.0 Ga) spanned a critical phase in Earth's history, characterized by repeated glaciations and an increase in atmospheric oxygen (the Great Oxidation Event (GOE)).

Adapting Macroecology to Microbiology: Using Occupancy Modeling To Assess Functional Profiles across Metagenomes

mSystems, 2021
Metagenomic sequencing provides information on the metabolic capacities and taxonomic affiliations for members of a microbial community. When assessing metabolic functions in a community, missing genes in pathways can occur in two ways; the genes may ...

Carbon Isotope Chemostratigraphy Across the Permian-Triassic Boundary at Chaotian, China: Implications for the Global Methane Cycle in the Aftermath of the Extinction

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
During the end-Permian extinction, a substantial amount of methane (CH4) was likely released into the ocean-atmosphere system associated with the Siberian Traps volcanism, although fluctuations in the global CH4 cycle in the aftermath of the extinction ...

Planktonic and sediment-associated aerobic methanotrophs in two seep systems along the North American margin [PDF]

, 2008
Methane vents are of significant geochemical and ecological importance. Notable progress has been made towards understanding anaerobic methane oxidation in marine sediments, however, the diversity and distribution of aerobic methanotrophs in the water ...
