Diel cycle of lanthanide-dependent methylotrophy by TMED127/Methylaequorales bacteria in oligotrophic surface seawater [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Methanol, the simplest alcohol, has long been known to be a key energy and carbon source for soil and plant-associated bacteria and fungi and is increasingly recognized as an important substrate for marine bacteria.

Identification of overoxidizing and non-overoxidizing NAD-dependent methanol dehydrogenases and implications for synthetic methylotrophy [PDF]

Nature Communications
Synthetic methylotrophy offers opportunities for sustainable chemical and biofuel production. While recently established methylotrophic E. coli can grow on methanol, undesirable formate accumulation occurs during growth and bioproduction.

Differential partitioning of seed-inhabiting methylotrophs in the endosphere of wheat plants [PDF]

BMC Biology
Background Both endophytes, microorganisms that reside within plants, and methylotrophs, which grow using methanol produced from plant leaves, play key roles in protecting plants against biotic and abiotic stresses.

Evolutionary engineering of methylotrophic E. coli enables fast growth on methanol [PDF]

Nature Communications
As methanol can be derived from either CO2 or methane, methanol economy can play an important role in combating climate change. In this scenario, rapid utilization of methanol by an industrial microorganism is the first and crucial step for efficient ...

Engineering the native methylotrophs for the bioconversion of methanol to value-added chemicals: current status and future perspectives

Green Chemical Engineering, 2023
Methanol is becoming an attractive fermentation feedstock for large-scale bioproduction of chemicals, due to its natural abundance and mature production technology. Native methylotrophs, which can utilize methanol as the only source of carbon and energy,

Exploring Ectoine Production From Methanol, Formate, and Electrochemically Produced Formate by <i>Methyloligella halotolerans</i>. [PDF]

Eng Life Sci
ABSTRACT Microbial synthesis using renewable C1‐carbon sources like electrochemically produced formate (e‐formate) represents a promising approach for climate‐neutral chemical production. This study investigates formate utilization for ectoine biosynthesis by the halophilic methylotroph Methyloligella halotolerans.

Methylotrophs and Methylotroph Populations for Chloromethane Degradation [PDF]

Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2019
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

Physiology of Methylotrophs Living in the Phyllosphere

Microorganisms, 2021
Methanol is abundant in the phyllosphere, the surface of the above-ground parts of plants, and its concentration oscillates diurnally. The phyllosphere is one of the major habitats for a group of microorganisms, the so-called methylotrophs, that utilize ...
