Zwitterionic cellular polymer enabled reductive fixation of CO2 for N-methylation of amines
Green Synthesis and Catalysis, 2023 Using heterogeneous catalysts to promote the construction of the C–N bond between amines and CO2 under mild conditions is a challenge yet. Herein, we synthesized a novel zwitterionic polymer (PDDC) with a cellular structure via self-complexation of ...

Occurrence and expression of genes encoding methyl-compound production in rumen bacteria
Animal Microbiome, 2019 Background Digestive processes in the rumen lead to the release of methyl-compounds, mainly methanol and methylamines, which are used by methyltrophic methanogens to form methane, an important agricultural greenhouse gas.

Testing the ability of non-methylamine osmolytes present in kidney cells to counteract the deleterious effects of urea on structure, stability and function of proteins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Human kidney cells are under constant urea stress due to its urine concentrating mechanism. It is believed that the deleterious effect of urea is counteracted by methylamine osmolytes (glycine betaine and glycerophosphocholine) present in kidney cells. A

Uncovering the Diversity and Activity of Methylotrophic Methanogens in Freshwater Wetland Soils
mSystems, 2019 Wetland soils are one of the largest natural contributors to the emission of methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Currently, microbial contributions to methane emissions from these systems emphasize the roles of acetoclastic and hydrogenotrophic methanogens,
