Methane-oxidizing bacterial community dynamics in sub-alpine forest soil

Microbiology Spectrum
Microbial activities in sub-alpine forest soil influence global cycling of the potent greenhouse gas methane. Understanding the dynamics of methane-oxidizing bacterial communities, particularly the roles of potentially active versus total microbial ...

Preparation of Chiral 2,4-Dimethylglutaric Acid Monoesters from the Racemic Diesters by means of Microbes and Microbial Esterases

CHIMIA, 1985
After an extensive screening, some specialized methylotrophs as well as a Streptomyces strain were found to be useful sources of esterases catalyzing the enantioselective hydrolysis of racemic 2,4-dimethylglutaric acid dimethyl ester (3) and diethyl ...

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 ...

Experimental Horizontal Gene Transfer of Methylamine Dehydrogenase Mimics Prevalent Exchange in Nature and Overcomes the Methylamine Growth Constraints Posed by the Sub-Optimal N-Methylglutamate Pathway

Microorganisms, 2015
Methylamine plays an important role in the global carbon and nitrogen budget; microorganisms that grow on reduced single carbon compounds, methylotrophs, serve as a major biological sink for methylamine in aerobic environments.

Impact of Copper on the Physiology and Transcriptome of Methylosinus Trichosporium OB3b Grown on Either Methane or Methanol

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2026.
Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b can grow on methanol in the absence but not presence of copper due: (1) overgeneration of reducing power from methanol oxidation; (2) formate accumulation leading to acidification of the growth medium and inactivation of formate dehydrogenase; and (3) lack of expression of potential oxidative stress defence genes ...

Genomics of Methylotrophy in Gram-Positive Methylamine-Utilizing Bacteria

Microorganisms, 2015
Gram-positive methylotrophic bacteria have been known for a long period of time, some serving as model organisms for characterizing the specific details of methylotrophy pathways/enzymes within this group. However, genome-based knowledge of methylotrophy

Spatial Heterogeneity in Methane Biogeochemistry and Prokaryotic Community Structure in Sub‐Arctic Waterbodies in Northern Canada

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 12, December 2025.
Prokaryotic communities and methane dynamics differed markedly across 16 sub‐Arctic waterbodies. Maximum depth and permafrost thaw emerged as key drivers, with non‐stratified thaw‐affected sites hosting distinct communities and elevated methane fluxes, highlighting their potential role as emerging hotspots of methane emissions.

The Microbiome of the Seaweed Cultivar Ulva compressa (Chlorophyta) and Its Persistence Under Micropollutant Exposure

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Despite reduced bacterial diversity due to cultivation and subsequent micropollutant treatment, key bacterial functions are retained, promoting macroalgal growth and morphogenesis. ABSTRACT The green macroalga Ulva demonstrates exceptional growth rates, robustness, adaptability and potential for nitrogen and phosphorus removal; thus, it is a promising ...
