Bioenergetics of methanogenesis from acetate by Methanosarcina barkeri.

Methane formation from acetate by resting cells of Methanosarcina barkeri was accompanied by an increase in the intracellular ATP content from 0.9 to 4.0 nmol/mg of protein. Correspondingly, the proton motive force increased to a steady-state level of -120 mV. The transmembrane pH gradient however, was reversed under these conditions and amounted to +20 mV. The addition of the protonophore 3,5,...

Loss of the mtr operon in Methanosarcina blocks growth on methanol, but not methanogenesis, and reveals an unknown methanogenic pathway.

In the methanogenic archaeon Methanosarcina barkeri Fusaro, the N5-methyl-tetrahydrosarcinapterin (CH3-H4SPT):coenzyme M (CoM) methyltransferase, encoded by the mtr operon, catalyzes the energy-conserving (sodium-pumping) methyl transfer from CH3-H4SPT to CoM during growth on H2/CO2 or acetate. However, in the disproportionation of C-1 compounds, such as methanol, to methane and carbon dioxide,...

Protein content and enzyme activities in methanol- and acetate-grown Methanosarcina thermophila.

The cell extract protein content of acetate- and methanol-grown Methanosarcina thermophila TM-1 was examined by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. More than 100 mutually exclusive spots were present in acetate- and methanol-grown cells. Spots corresponding to acetate kinase, phosphotransacetylase, and the five subunits of the carbon monoxide dehydrogenase complex were identifie...

Characterization of cytochromes from Methanosarcina strain Göl and their involvement in electron transport during growth on methanol.

Methanosarcina strain Gö1 was tested for the presence of cytochromes. Low-temperature spectroscopy, hemochrome derivative spectroscopy, and redox titration revealed the presence of two b-type (b559 and b564) and two c-type (c547 and c552) cytochromes in membranes from Methanosarcina strain Gö1. The midpoint potentials determined were Em,7 = -135 +/- 5 and -240 +/- 11 mV (b-type cytochromes) and...

Diazotrophy and Nitrogenase Activity in the Archaebacterium Methanosarcina barkeri 227.

Nitrogen fixation (diazotrophy) has recently been demonstrated in several methanogenic archaebacteria. To compare the process in an archaebacterium with that in eubacteria, we examined the properties of diazotrophic growth and nitrogenase activity in Methanosarcina barkeri 227. Growth yields with methanol or acetate as a growth substrate were significantly lower in N(2)-grown cultures than in N...
