Journal ArticleDOI

A rod-shaped, gram-negative, propionigenic bacterium with a wide substrate range and the ability to fix molecular nitrogen.

TL;DR: Asp 66 did not require vitamins and grew well in mineral media with a fermentable substrate and was able to fix N2 as evidenced by its growth with N1 as sole nitrogen source and its ability to reduce acetylene to ethylene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of Product Formation in Bacteroides xylanolyticus X5-1 by Interspecies Electron Transfer.

TL;DR: Results are consistent with a model in which the shift in product formation caused by interspecies electron transfer is regulated at the level of enzyme synthesis, suggesting de novo synthesis of these enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Principles, Advances, and Perspectives of Anaerobic Digestion of Lipids.

TL;DR: This critical review discusses the most important principles underpinning the degradation process and recent key discoveries and outlines the current knowledge coupling fundamental and applied aspects of anaerobic biodegradation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Propionate Converting Anaerobic Microbial Communities Enriched from Distinct Biogeochemical Zones of Aarhus Bay, Denmark under Sulfidogenic and Methanogenic Conditions.

TL;DR: Aarhus Bay sediment zones contain sulfate reducers, syntrophs, and methanogens interacting with each other in the conversion of propionate, indicating that in AarhusBay sediments, Cryptanaerobacter degraded propionates in syntrophic association with methanogen.
