Methylotrophic Autotrophy in Beijerinckia mobilis [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2005
ABSTRACT Representatives of the genus Beijerinckia are known as heterotrophic, dinitrogen-fixing bacteria which utilize a wide range of multicarbon compounds. Here we show that at least one of the currently known species of this genus, i.e., Beijerinckia ...

Biological Conversion of Formate to Organic Compounds: Toward a Sustainable Formate Bioeconomy

Carbon Energy, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Formate bioconversion plays a crucial role in achieving renewable resource utilization and sustainable development. To tap its full potential, it is important to identify the most appropriate microbial hosts for incorporating formate into building blocks, design the most promising metabolic pathways for transmitting formate into central carbon ...

Methanotroph-methylotroph lipid adaptations to changing environmental conditions

Frontiers in Microbiology
Methanotrophs, in particular methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB), regulate the release of methane from lakes, and often co-occur with methylotrophs that may enhance methane-oxidation rates.

Clumped isotopes as fingerprints of microbial methane production pathways in marine sediments

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Microbial methanogenesis in marine sediments produces significant amounts of methane from various substrates; however, identifying the active pathways in situ remains challenging. While the bulk and clumped isotopic signatures of methane from different pathways have been studied in pure cultures, these are difficult to compare with complex ...

A marine plasmid hitchhiking vast phylogenetic and geographic distances [PDF]

, 2019
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) plays an important role in bacterial evolution and serves as a driving force for bacterial diversity and versatility. HGT events often involve mobile genetic elements like plasmids, which can promote their own dissemination

Identification of Novel Methane-, Ethane-, and Propane-Oxidizing Bacteria at Marine Hydrocarbon Seeps by Stable Isotope Probing [PDF]

, 2010
Marine hydrocarbon seeps supply oil and gas to microorganisms in sediments and overlying water. We used stable isotope probing (SIP) to identify aerobic bacteria oxidizing gaseous hydrocarbons in surface sediment from the Coal Oil Point seep field ...
