Expanding on the ability of trivalent actinides to support microbial alcohol metabolism in evolved methylotrophic bacterium [PDF]
The 4 f elements, known as the lanthanides, have only recently been recognized as biologically essential metals. These elements can be found in the active site of certain alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) enzymes, which are used by methylotrophic bacteria to ...

Molecular methods such as 16S rDNA sequencing are relatively accurate but are costly and time consuming, therefore new alternative methods have been a matter of interst. FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) is one of these methods.

Expanding the C-S-R framework to incorporate microbial interactions: evidence from methane-consuming communities [PDF]
Microbial interactions are critical in shaping community assembly and ecosystem functioning, yet classical ecological frameworks such as Grime’s Competitor-Stress Tolerator-Ruderal (C-S-R) model primarily emphasize individual traits, overlooking ...

Comparative Genomics and Mutational Analysis Reveals a Novel XoxF-Utilizing Methylotroph in the Roseobacter Group Isolated From the Marine Environment [PDF]
The Roseobacter group comprises a significant group of marine bacteria which are involved in global carbon and sulfur cycles. Some members are methylotrophs, using one-carbon compounds as a carbon and energy source.

Development of a markerless tool for targeted chromosome modification in the thermophilic and methylotrophic bacterium Bacillus methanolicus [PDF]
Background Bacillus methanolicus is a promising candidate to become an industrial workhorse for methanol-based bioproduction due to its methylotrophy. However, genetic toolbox for this biotechnologically relevant thermophilic bacterium is still limited ...

Methylotrophs and Methylotroph Populations for Chloromethane Degradation [PDF]
Chloromethane is a halogenated volatile organic compound, produced in large quantities by terrestrial vegetation. After its release to the troposphere and transport to the stratosphere, its photolysis contributes to the degradation of stratospheric ozone. A better knowledge of chloromethane sources (production) and sinks (degradation) is a prerequisite

Draft genome sequence of the caffeine-degrading methylotroph \u3cem\u3eMethylorubrum populi\u3c/em\u3e Pinkel [PDF]
A pink-pigmented facultative methylotroph, Methylorubrum populi Pinkel, was isolated from compost by selective enrichment with caffeine (3,5,7-trimethylxanthine) as the sole carbon, nitrogen, and energy source.

New Obligate Methylotroph [PDF]
A new and unique obligate methylotroph was isolated from enrichment cultures with methanol as the sole source of carbon and energy. The organism grows only on methanol and methylamine and not on methane. It does not have a complex intracellular membrane system.
