Detection of autotrophic verrucomicrobial methanotrophs in a geothermal environment using stable isotope probing
Genomic analysis of the methanotrophic verrucomicrobium "Methylacidiphilum infernorum" strain V4 has shown that most pathways conferring its methanotrophic lifestyle are similar to those found in proteobacterial methanotrophs. However, due to the large sequence divergence of its methane monooxygenase-encoding genes (pmo), "universal" pmoA polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers do not target th...
متن کاملIdentification of functionally active aerobic methanotrophs in sediments from an arctic lake using stable isotope probing.
Arctic lakes are a significant source of the greenhouse gas methane (CH(4) ), but the role that methane oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs) play in limiting the overall CH(4) flux is poorly understood. Here, we used stable isotope probing (SIP) techniques to identify the metabolically active aerobic methanotrophs in upper sediments (0-1 cm) from an arctic lake in northern Alaska sampled during ...
متن کاملAnaerobic carboxydotrophic bacteria in geothermal springs identified using stable isotope probing
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a potential energy and carbon source for thermophilic bacteria in geothermal environments. Geothermal sites ranging in temperature from 45 to 65°C were investigated for the presence and activity of anaerobic CO-oxidizing bacteria. Anaerobic CO oxidation potentials were measured at up to 48.9 μmoles CO g(-1) (wet weight) day(-1) within five selected sites. Active anaerobi...
متن کاملFunctional Metagenomics using Stable Isotope Probing: a Review
The microbial eco-physiology has been the vital key of microbial ecological research. Unfortunately, available methods for direct identity of microorganisms and for the investigation of their activity in complicated community dynamics are limited. In this study, metagenomics was considered as a promising functional genomics tool for improving our understanding of microbial eco-physiology. Its p...

N-RNA-SIP is a new method that has been discussed in recent literature but has not yet been tested. Herein, we define the limitation...
