Syntrophy of bacteria and archaea in the anaerobic catabolism of hydrocarbon contaminants
Critical reviews in environmental science and technology, 2022The extensive use of organic chemicals has resulted in the widespread distribution of hydrocarbon contaminants (HCs) in many ecosystems on a global scale.

Syntrophy in Methanogenic Degradation
2010This chapter deals with microbial communities of bacteria and archaea that closely cooperate in methanogenic degradation and perform metabolic functions in this community that neither one of them could carry out alone. The methanogenic degradation of fatty acids, alcohols, most aromatic compounds, amino acids, and others is performed in partnership ...

Anaerobic prokaryotes: competition and syntrophy
1995Abstract The most obvious impact of fermentation in the contemporary world is on human and animal nutrition. The community of fermenting microbes living in the forestomach of herbivorous mammals is completely responsible for decomposing grass and other plant material to the fatty acids on which the host depends for growth; and wood ...

Genesis of Ecto-symbiotic features based on Commensalistic Syntrophy
2022AbstractThe origin of eukaryotes and organellogenesis have been recognized as a major evolutionary transition and subject to in-depth studies. Acknowledging the fact that the initial interactions and conditions of cooperative behaviour between free-living single-celled organisms are widely debated, we narrow our scope to a single mechanism that could ...

Genomic Insights into Syntrophy: The Paradigm for Anaerobic Metabolic Cooperation
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2012Syntrophy is a tightly coupled mutualistic interaction between hydrogen-/formate-producing and hydrogen-/formate-using microorganisms that occurs throughout the microbial world. Syntrophy is essential for global carbon cycling, waste decomposition, and biofuel production.

Hydrogen-based syntrophy in an electrically conductive biofilm anode
Chemical Engineering Journal, 2019Abstract We experimentally and theoretically investigated implications of H2 and a rate-limiting step in a mixed-culture biofilm anode fed with n-butyrate, one of the poorest substrates to exoelectrogens. Acetate and i-butyrate were formed as intermediates during anaerobic degradation of n-butyrate, which suggested oxidative acetogenesis of n ...

Redox-active humics support interspecies syntrophy and shift microbial community
Science China Technological Sciences, 2019The network of microbial electron transfer can establish a syntrophic association of microbes by connecting interspecies metabolisms, and a variety of redox-active shuttles in environment have been proved to accelerate the electron flow in a microbial community.

Thermodynamic Ecology of Hydrogen-Based Syntrophy
2006The energy available for metabolism in many anoxic ecosystems is so minimal that organisms are forced to live at the fundamental energetic threshold for life. Because organisms in these environments are energy limited, and because the amount of energy generated during catabolism hardly exceeds the biological energy quantum, competition for reducing ...

Metagenomics of petroleum muck: revealing microbial diversity and depicting microbial syntrophy
Archives of Microbiology, 2014Present study attempts in revealing taxonomic and functional diversity of microorganism from petroleum muck using metagenomics approach. Using Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine, total of 249 Mb raw data were obtained which was analysed using MG-RAST platform.
