In search of sulfate-reducing consortia able to degrade acetate under acidic conditions
Nohemi G. Campos-Quevedo,Nohemi G. Campos-Quevedo,Irene Sánchez-Andrea,Nguyen E. López-Lozano,Alfons J. M. Stams,Alfons J. M. Stams,Lourdes B. Celis +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed cultivable consortia of sulfate-reducing microorganisms able to consume acetate at acidic pHs and analyzed their community composition, which could serve as inoculum for sulfatereducing bioreactors and could help to overcome acetate accumulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Co-cultivation of Thermoanaerobacter strains with a methanogenic partner enhances glycerol conversion
Carla Isabel Pereira Magalhães,Joaquim Alfredo França Martins Ribeiro,Ana P. Guedes,Ana Luísa Arantes,Diana Z. Sousa,Diana Z. Sousa,Alfons J. M. Stams,Alfons J. M. Stams,M. Madalena Alves,Ana Júlia Cavaleiro +9 more
TL;DR: The catabolic pathways of glycerol conversion were identified by genome analysis of the two Thermoanaerobacter strains and NADH and reduced ferredoxin formed in the pathway are linked to proton reduction, which becomes thermodynamically favourable when the hydrogen partial pressure is kept low by the hydrogenotrophic methanogenic partner.

Organohalide-respiring Desulfoluna species isolated from marine environments
Peng Peng,Tobias Goris,Yue Lu,Bart Nijsse,Anna Burrichter,David Schleheck,Jasper J. Koehorst,Jie Liu,Detmer Sipkema,Jaap S. Sinninghe Damsté,Alfons J. M. Stams,Alfons J. M. Stams,Max M. Häggblom,Hauke Smidt,Siavash Atashgahi +14 more
TL;DR: Strain DBB sustained OHR with 2% oxygen in the gas phase, in line with its genetic potential for reactive oxygen species detoxification, and differential induction of rdhA genes in strain DBB in response to 1,4- dibromobenzene or 2,6-dibromophenol was revealed.
Syntrophic cocultures of Geobacter sulfurreducens and Syntrophobacter fumaroxidans growing on propionate and Fe (III) or a solid electrode as electron acceptors
TL;DR: Microbiology Centennial Symposium 2017 - Exploring Microbes for the Quality of Life explores microbes and their role in the quality of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proteogenomic analysis of Georgfuchsia toluolica revealed unexpected concurrent aerobic and anaerobic toluene degradation.
Siavash Atashgahi,Siavash Atashgahi,Margreet J. Oosterkamp,Peng Peng,Peng Peng,Jeroen Frank,Beate Kraft,Bastian V. H. Hornung,Bastian V. H. Hornung,David Schleheck,Sebastian Lücker,Mike S. M. Jetten,Alfons J. M. Stams,Alfons J. M. Stams,Hauke Smidt +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a multi-omics study to better understand the metabolism of the representative organism Georgfuchsia toluolica strain G5G6 known as a strict anaerobe coupling toluene oxidation with dissimilatory nitrate and Fe(III) reduction.
