Syntrophic degradation of cadaverine by a defined methanogenic coculture.
A novel, strictly anaerobic, cadaverine-oxidizing, defined coculture was isolated from an anoxic freshwater sediment sample. The coculture oxidized cadaverine (1,5-diaminopentane) with sulfate as the electron acceptor. The sulfate-reducing partner could be replaced by a hydrogenotrophic methanogenic partner. The defined coculture fermented cadaverine to acetate, butyrate, and glutarate plus sul...
متن کاملGrowth of syntrophic propionate-oxidizing bacteria with fumarate in the absence of methanogenic bacteria.
Oxidation of succinate to fumarate is an energetically difficult step in the biochemical pathway of propionate oxidation by syntrophic methanogenic cultures. Therefore, the effect of fumarate on propionate oxidation by two different propionate-oxidizing cultures was investigated. When the methanogens in a newly enriched propionate-oxidizing methanogenic culture were inhibited by bromoethanesulf...
متن کاملHydrogen metabolism in aerobic hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria.
A survey on organisms able to use molecular hydrogen as electron donor in the energy-yielding process is presented. In the group of the aerobic hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria so far two types of hydrogenases have been encountered, a NAD-reducing, soluble enzyme (H2 : NAD oxidoreductase) and a membrane-bound enzyme unable to reduce pyridine nucleotides. With respect to the distribution of both type...
متن کاملClostridium ultunense sp. nov., a mesophilic bacterium oxidizing acetate in syntrophic association with a hydrogenotrophic methanogenic bacterium.
A syntrophic acetate-oxidizing bacterium, strain BST (T = type strain), was isolated from a previously described mesophilic triculture that was able to syntrophically oxidize acetate and form methane in stoichiometric amounts. Strain BST was isolated with substrates typically utilized by homoacetogenic bacteria. Strain BST was a spore-forming, gram-positive, rod-shaped organism which utilized f...
متن کاملEnergetics of syntrophic fatty acid oxidation
Fatty acids are key intermediates in methanogenic degradation of organic matter in sediments as well as in anaerobic reactors. Conversion of butyrate or propionate to acetate, (CO2), and hydrogen is endergonic under standard conditions, and becomes possible only at low hydrogen concentrations (10 4--10-5 bar). A model of energy sharing between fermenting and methanogenic bacteria attributes a m...
