Metals and methanotrophy
Aerobic methanotrophs have long been known to play a critical role in the global carbon
cycle, being capable of converting methane to biomass and carbon dioxide. Interestingly …

A reduction of transcriptional regulation in aquatic oligotrophic microorganisms enhances fitness in nutrient-poor environments
In this review, we consider the regulatory strategies of aquatic oligotrophs, microbial cells
that are adapted to thrive under low-nutrient concentrations in oceans, lakes, and other …

Use of rare‐earth elements in the phyllosphere colonizer Methylobacterium extorquens PA1
AM Ochsner, L Hemmerle, T Vonderach… - Molecular …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Until recently, rare‐earth elements (REEs) had been thought to be biologically inactive. This
view changed with the discovery of the methanol dehydrogenase XoxF that strictly relies on …

Towards quantitative microbiome community profiling using internal standards
An inherent issue in high-throughput rRNA gene tag sequencing microbiome surveys is that
they provide compositional data in relative abundances. This often leads to spurious …

Environmental viscosity modulates interbacterial killing during habitat transition
Symbiotic bacteria use diverse strategies to compete for host colonization sites. However,
little is known about the environmental cues that modulate interbacterial competition as they …
