Geothermal Gases Shape the Microbial Community of the Volcanic Soil of Pantelleria, Italy

mSystems, 2020
Volcanic and geothermal environments are characterized by low pH, high temperatures, and gas emissions consisting of mainly CO2 and varied CH4, H2S, and H2 contents which allow the formation of chemolithoautotrophic microbial communities.

Comparative Genomics of Candidatus Methylomirabilis Species and Description of Ca. Methylomirabilis Lanthanidiphila

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, which can be converted by microorganism at the expense of oxygen, nitrate, nitrite, metal-oxides or sulfate. The bacterium ‘Candidatus Methylomirabilis oxyfera,’ a member of the NC10 phylum, is capable of nitrite ...

Megathrust Earthquake Legacy Linked to Changes in Widespread Potential for Methane and Iron Cycling in Glaciated Wetlands

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Freshwater wetlands are major sources of global methane emissions through biogenic methanogenesis, a process increasingly influenced by climate change. High latitude wetlands are subject to uniquely altered biogeochemical inputs due to disproportionate warming.

Interactions of rare earth elements with living organisms and emerging biotechnical applications

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1251-1274, September 2025.
Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical resources required to achieve net‐zero carbon emission targets and energy security. However, rising demand for REEs coupled with significant extraction and processing challenges and geopolitical risks restricts access to REE resources.

The Elusive Chemistry of Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Dimethyl Ester Lanthanide Complexes in Biomimetic Alcohol Oxidation

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 28, Issue 24, August 29, 2025.
Biomimetic complexes of lanthanide‐dependent methanol dehydrogenases bearing a pyrroloquinoline quinone dimethyl ester ligand can oxidize alcohols to aldehydes. Spectroscopic studies on the reaction shed light on the mechanism of the reaction and may explain trends observed in the enzyme.

Hydrogen Oxidation Benefits Alphaproteobacterial Methanotrophs Under Severe Methane Limitation

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2025.
We cultivated alphaproteobacterial methanotrophs under severe CH4‐limited conditions and studied their H2 oxidation characteristics as an alternative energy source. ABSTRACT Hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) are produced in the anoxic layers of wetlands and sediments. In the overlaying oxygenated surface layers, these gases become available for oxidation

Genomic Evidence for Simultaneous Optimization of Transcription and Translation through Codon Variants in the pmoCAB Operon of Type Ia Methanotrophs

mSystems, 2019
Understanding the interplay between genotype and phenotype is a fundamental goal of functional genomics. Methane oxidation is a microbial phenotype with global-scale significance as part of the carbon biogeochemical cycle and a sink for greenhouse gas ...

Quantitative Transcriptomics Reveals the Growth- and Nutrient-Dependent Response of a Streamlined Marine Methylotroph to Methanol and Naturally Occurring Dissolved Organic Matter

mBio, 2016
The members of the OM43 clade of Betaproteobacteria are abundant coastal methylotrophs with a range of carbon-utilizing capabilities. However, their underlying transcriptional and metabolic responses to shifting conditions or different carbon substrates ...

Metabolic versatility of aerobic methane‐oxidizing bacteria under anoxia in aquatic ecosystems

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 5, October 2024.
Besides conventional aerobic oxidation pathway, MOB has four underlying metabolic strategies under anoxia: (i) forming a consortium with oxygenic microorganisms; (ii) self‐generation/storage of O2 by MOB; (iii) forming a consortium with non‐oxygenic heterotrophic bacteria that use other electron acceptors; (iv) and utilizing alternative electron ...

Methanol excretion by Methylomonas methanica is induced by the supernatant of a methanotrophic consortium

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 1356-1363, June 2024.
Abstract BACKGROUND Methanotrophs play an important role in mitigating methane (CH4) emissions in ecosystems. They closely interact with other microorganisms forming communities where the cross‐feeding of metabolites, presumably methanol (MeOH), is essential for the growth and activity of non‐methanotrophs. The experiments in this study were focused on
