Proteomic analysis reveals metabolic and regulatory systems involved the syntrophic and axenic lifestyle of Syntrophomonas wolfei.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Microbial syntrophy is a vital metabolic interaction necessary for the complete oxidation of organic biomass to methane in all-anaerobic ecosystems.

Eukaryogenesis From FECA to LECA: Radical Steps Along the Way

BioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 11, November 2025.
How did the last eukaryotic common ancestor (LECA) population evolve? Recent evidence shows an Asgard archaeon‐like organism acquiring a bacterium, the future mitochondrion, going from symbiosis to endosymbiosis. I postulate that almost all salient LECA characteristics could have resulted from the ensuing enhanced ATP generation and internal reactive ...

Metabolic capabilities of microorganisms involved in and associated with the anaerobic oxidation of methane

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
In marine sediments the anaerobic oxidation of methane with sulfate as electron acceptor (AOM) is responsible for the removal of a major part of the greenhouse gas methane.

Metabolic Flexibility of Sulfate Reducing Bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011
Dissimilatory sulfate-reducing prokaryotes (SRB) are a very diverse group of anaerobic bacteria that are omnipresent in nature and play an imperative role in the global cycling of carbon and sulfur.

Mathematical model of anaerobic digestion in a chemostat: effects of syntrophy and inhibition

Journal of Biological Dynamics, 2013
Three of the four main stages of anaerobic digestion: acidogenesis, acetogenesis, and methanogenesis are described by a system of differential equations modelling the interaction of microbial populations in a chemostat. The microbes consume and/or produce simple substrates, alcohols and fatty acids, acetic acid, and hydrogen.

Development of a Bioelectrochemical System as a Tool to Enrich H2-Producing Syntrophic Bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Syntrophic microbial partnerships are found in many environments and play critical roles in wastewater treatment, global nutrient cycles, and gut systems. An important type of syntrophy for the anaerobic conversion of carboxylic acids is H2 syntrophy. In
