Comparative Genomics of Candidatus Methylomirabilis Species and Description of Ca. Methylomirabilis Lanthanidiphila

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, which can be converted by microorganism at the expense of oxygen, nitrate, nitrite, metal-oxides or sulfate. The bacterium ‘Candidatus Methylomirabilis oxyfera,’ a member of the NC10 phylum, is capable of nitrite ...

Lanthanide‐Controlled Protein Switches: Development and In Vitro and In Vivo Applications

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 9, February 24, 2025.
Engineering artificial allosteric protein switches controlled by rare earth elements allows the development of assays, construction of bioelectronic devices, and REE‐controlled microorganisms. Abstract Lanthanides, which are part of the rare earth elements group have numerous applications in electronics, medicine and energy storage.

Culture-dependent and culture-independent methods reveal diverse methylotrophic communities in terrestrial environments [PDF]

, 2015
One-carbon compounds such as methanol, dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) are significant intermediates in biogeochemical cycles. They are suggested to affect atmospheric chemistry and global climate.

Yeast‐Based Biotechnology for Civilian Security

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Yeasts constitute robust and versatile eukaryotic platforms for biotechnological applications relevant to civilian security. Both native and genetically engineered yeast systems enable sensitive detection of chemical and biological hazards, effective removal of metals and organic pollutants, and detoxification of mycotoxins.

Synthetic Methylotrophy: Past, Present, and Future

, 2018
Methane and methanol are regarded as alternative and highly attractive nonfood raw materials for the biotechnology sector. The supply of methane and methanol comes from both fossil and renewable resources, rendering them flexible and sustainable raw materials. Reduced one-carbon (C1) compounds are used by specialized groups of microorganisms, i.e., the

Comparative Binding Studies of the Chelators Methylolanthanin and Rhodopetrobactin B to Lanthanides and Ferric Iron

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
The synthesis and the investigation of the lanthanide (Ln) and Fe‐binding properties of the putative lanthanophore methylolanthanin (MLL) and the siderophore rhodopetrobactin B (RPB B) are reported. While both chelators bind Lns, they unexpectedly precipitate with Lns under biologically relevant conditions and thereby challenge the proposed classic ...

Natural Selection in Synthetic Communities Highlights the Roles of Methylococcaceae and Methylophilaceae and Suggests Differential Roles for Alternative Methanol Dehydrogenases in Methane Consumption

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
We describe experiments that follow species dynamics and gene expression patterns in synthetic bacterial communities including species that compete for the single carbon substrate supplied, methane, and species unable to consume methane, which could only
