Methane is the second most important greenhouse gas contributing to about 20% of global warming. Its mitigation is conducted by methane oxidizing bacteria that act as a biofilter using methane as their energy and carbon source.

Global peatland greenhouse gas dynamics: state of the art, processes, and perspectives
Summary Natural peatlands regulate greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes through a permanently high groundwater table, causing carbon dioxide (CO2) assimilation but methane (CH4) emissions due to anaerobic conditions. By contrast, drained and disturbed peatlands are hotspots for CO2 and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, while CH4 release is low but high from ...

The methane-oxidizing microbial communities of three maar lakes in tropical monsoon Asia
Methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) is a group of planktonic microorganisms that use methane as their primary source of cellular energy. For tropical lakes in monsoon Asia, there is currently a knowledge gap on MOB community diversity and the factors ...

Comparative in silico analysis of PCR primers suited for diagnostics and cloning of ammonia monooxygenase genes from ammonia-oxidizing bacteria [PDF]
Over recent years, several PCR primers have been described to amplify genes encoding the structural subunits of ammonia monooxygenase (AMO) from ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB).

Abstract Global methane (CH4) emissions from thawing permafrost peatlands are expected to increase substantially in the future. Net emission of CH4 depends on the presence of more favorable terminal electron acceptors for microbial respiration, such as ferric iron (Fe(III)).

Structure and function of methanotrophic communities in a landfill-cover soil [PDF]
In landfill-cover soils, aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) convert CH4 to CO2, mitigating emissions of the greenhouse gas CH4 to the atmosphere.

Direct Methane to Methanol Conversion: An Overview of Non‐Syn Gas Catalytic Strategies
Direct methane to methanol conversion is an interesting approach to mitigate the problems associated with methane emission. This review summarises the biological production of methanol by methanotrophs using MMOs and methane oxidation promoted by various metal zeolites as well as molecular catalysts.

Metagenomic analysis of nitrogen and methane cycling in the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone [PDF]
Oxygen minimum zones (OMZ) are areas in the global ocean where oxygen concentrations drop to below one percent. Low oxygen concentrations allow alternative respiration with nitrate and nitrite as electron acceptor to become prevalent in these areas ...
