Rare earth elements in biology: From biochemical curiosity to solutions for extractive industries. [PDF]

Microb Biotechnol
To meet society's demands for technologies that use rare earth elements (including those that allow a decarbonized society), we need to increase the volume and efficiency of extraction by mining and recycling. Microbial rare earth biochemistry offers numerous enabling biotechnologies to achieve this. Abstract Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical for

Contrasting Methane, Sulfide and Nitrogen-Loading Regimes in Bioreactors Shape Microbial Communities Originating From Methane-Rich Coastal Sediment of the Stockholm Archipelago. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol
In this study, microbial communities are enriched in brackish anoxic bioreactors with methane, sulfide, nitrate and ammonium. Novel diversity is identified and functionally analysed. ABSTRACT Coastal ecosystems are increasingly exposed to high nutrient loads and salinity intrusions due to rising seawater levels.

Switching Between Methanol Accumulation and Cell Growth by Expression Control of Methanol Dehydrogenase in Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b Mutant

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Methanotrophs have been used to convert methane to methanol at ambient temperature and pressure. In order to accumulate methanol using methanotrophs, methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) must be downregulated as it consumes methanol. Here, we describe a methanol

Phylogeny and Metabolic Potential of the Methanotrophic Lineage MO3 in Beijerinckiaceae from the Paddy Soil through Metagenome-Assembled Genome Reconstruction

Microorganisms, 2022
Although the study of aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB, methanotrophs) has been carried out for more than a hundred years, there are many uncultivated methanotrophic lineages whose metabolism is largely unknown.

A Novel Moderately Thermophilic Facultative Methylotroph within the Class Alphaproteobacteria

Microorganisms, 2021
Methylotrophic bacteria (non-methanotrophic methanol oxidizers) consuming reduced carbon compounds containing no carbon–carbon bonds as their sole carbon and energy source have been found in a great variety of environments.

Minor Actinides Can Replace Essential Lanthanides in Bacterial Life** [PDF]

, 2023
Certain f-block elements—the lanthanides—have biological relevance in the context of methylotrophic bacteria. The respective strains incorporate these 4 f elements into the active site of one of their key metabolic enzymes, a lanthanide-dependent ...

Draft genome sequences of five new strains of methylophilaceae isolated from lake washington sediment. [PDF]

, 2015
We sequenced the genomes of five new Methylophilaceae strains isolated from Lake Washington sediment. We used the new sequences to sort these new strains into specific Methylophilaceae ecotypes, including one novel ecotype.

Versatile methanotrophs form an active methane biofilter in the oxycline of a seasonally stratified coastal basin

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 11, Page 2277-2288, November 2023., 2023
Abstract The potential and drivers of microbial methane removal in the water column of seasonally stratified coastal ecosystems and the importance of the methanotrophic community composition for ecosystem functioning are not well explored. Here, we combined depth profiles of oxygen and methane with 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, metagenomics and ...

Methylacidimicrobium thermophilum AP8, a Novel Methane- and Hydrogen-Oxidizing Bacterium Isolated From Volcanic Soil on Pantelleria Island, Italy [PDF]

, 2021
The Favara Grande is a geothermal area located on Pantelleria Island, Italy. The area is characterized high temperatures in the top layer of the soil (60\ub0C), low pH (3\u20135) and hydrothermal gas emissions mainly composed of carbon dioxide (CO2 ...
