From genome to evolution: investigating type II methylotrophs using a pangenomic analysis [PDF]
mSystemsA comprehensive pangenomic approach was employed to analyze the genomes of 75 type II methylotrophs spanning various genera. Our investigation revealed 256 exact core gene families shared by all 75 organisms, emphasizing their crucial role in the ...

Linking microbes to in situ methane oxidation rates in a eutrophic freshwater lake [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionAerobic methanotrophs and non-methanotrophic methylotrophs drive methane cycling in oxic freshwater lakes. Most knowledge about biological aerobic methane oxidation (MOx) comes from ex situ rate experiments, laboratory cultures, and static ...

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

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

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

ISOLATION, PURIFICATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF SOME MICROORGANISMS PRODUCE PLANT GROWTH PROMOTING SUBSTANCES (METHYLOTROPHIC BACTERIA) [PDF]
Arab Universities Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2005 Recently, the potential economical importance of the methylotrophic bacteria encouraged the isolation of this group. In the present study five Egyptian isolates were obtained from green leaves surface of legume plants named PPFM.C (ChickPea), PPFM.Ph ...

New Obligate Methylotroph [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1972 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.
