ARChip Epoxy and ARChip UV for covalent on-chip immobilization of pmoA gene-specific oligonucleotides

Analytical Biochemistry, 2004
ARChip Epoxy and ARChip UV are presented as novel chip platforms for oligonucleotide immobilization. ARChip Epoxy is made of reactive epoxy resin available commercially. ARChip UV consists of photoactivatable poly(styrene-co-4-vinylbenzylthiocyanate).

A New Primer to Amplify pmoA Gene From NC10 Bacteria in the Sediments of Dongchang Lake and Dongping Lake

Current Microbiology, 2017
Nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (n-damo) is catalyzed by the NC10 phylum bacterium "Candidatus Methylomirabilis oxyfera" (M. oxyfera). Generally, the pmoA gene is applied as a functional marker to test and identify NC10-like bacteria. However, it is difficult to detect the NC10 bacteria from sediments of freshwater lake (Dongchang Lake ...

The evolution of the AMOA, PMOA and BMOA genes measured by ka/ks ratios.

Proceedings of the West Virginia Academy of Science, 2016
The copper-containing membrane-bound monooxygenase enzyme family consists of enzymes facilitating the oxidation of methane (catalyzed by particulate methane monooxygenase, pMMO) and ammonia (catalyzed by ammonia monooxygenase, AMO), in both aerobic and anaerobic methanotrophs and nitrifiers, respectively, and the oxidation of C2-10 alkanes (catalyzed ...

Methane oxidation in industrial biogas plants—Insights in a novel methanotrophic environment evidenced by pmoA gene analyses and stable isotope labelling studies

Journal of Biotechnology, 2018
A broad methanotrophic community consisting of 16 different operational taxonomic units (OTUs) was detected by particulate methane monooxygenase A (pmoA) gene analyses of reactor sludge samples obtained from an industrial biogas plant. Using a cloning-sequencing approach, 75% of the OTUs were affiliated to the group of type I methanotrophs (γ ...

A newly designed degenerate PCR primer based on pmoA gene for detection of nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria from different ecological niches

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2013
A new pmoA gene-based PCR primer set was designed for detection of nitrite-dependent anaerobic oxidation of methane (n-damo) bacteria from four different ecosystems, namely rice paddy soil, freshwater reservoir, reed bed, and sludge from wastewater treatment plant.

Methanotrophic bacterial diversity in two diverse soils under varying land-use practices as determined by high-throughput sequencing of the pmoA gene

Applied Soil Ecology, 2017
Abstract Methanotrophic bacteria in soil serve as the only known biological sink of atmospheric methane, and impact net methane emission from soils. Most members of methanotrophs use particulate methane monooxygenase enzyme, encoded by the pmoA gene, to oxidize methane.

A rapid regulation with different response intensities of the pmoA gene guarantees process robustness towards methane surges in continuous and feast-famine bioreactors

Biochemical Engineering Journal, 2019
Abstract A rapid recovery of methanotrophic activity from process fluctuations such as surges in CH4 inlet load is of utmost importance in bioreactors to guarantee a robust abatement of this potent greenhouse gas. However, the response of methanotrophs in CH4 abatement engineered ecosystems facing recurrent operational upsets has not been ...

Complex community of nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation bacteria in coastal sediments of the Mai Po wetland by PCR amplification of both 16S rRNA and pmoA genes

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014
In the present work, both 16S rRNA and pmoA gene-based PCR primers were employed successfully to study the diversity and distribution of n-damo bacteria in the surface and lower layer sediments at the coastal Mai Po wetland. The occurrence of n-damo bacteria in both the surface and subsurface sediments with high diversity was confirmed in this study ...

Spatiotemporal variations in the abundances of the prokaryotic rRNA genes, pmoA, and mcrA in the deep layers of a peat bog in Sarobetsu-genya wetland, Japan

Limnology, 2010
Spatiotemporal variations in microbial gene abundances were investigated to identify potential zones of methanotroph and methanogen biomass in a peat bog in Sarobetsu-genya wetland. The abundances of the bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA genes, pmoA, and mcrA were 107–109, 107–108, 104–106, and 104–107 copies g−1 dry peat, respectively.

Occurrence and diversity of nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation bacteria in the sediments of the South China Sea revealed by amplification of both 16S rRNA and pmoA genes

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014
Nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (n-damo) process is unique in linking the microbial carbon and nitrogen cycles, but the presence of n-damo bacteria in marine ecosystem and the associated environmental factors are still poorly understood. In the present study, detection of n-damo bacteria using 16S rRNA and pmoA gene-based PCR primers was ...
