TL;DR: Strain ES5 may be an appropriate catalyst for the biotechnological production of 1,3‐propanediol from glycerol at low ambient temperature, like several other Trichoccoccus strains.

TL;DR: It is proposed that H2 oxidation can enhance growth of methanotrophs in aerated methane-driven ecosystems and contribute to mitigation of global warming, since CH4 is an important and extremely potent greenhouse gas.

TL;DR: A mesophilic bacterium, strain An4, was isolated from an underground gas storage reservoir with methanol as substrate and perchlorate as electron acceptor and was most closely related to Sporomusa ovata.

TL;DR: This work reports on the discovery, cultivation, and physiological, genomic, and transcriptomic characterization of a novel gammaproteobacterial ammonia-oxidizing bacterium enriched via continuous bioreactor cultivation from an acidic air biofilter that was able to grow and oxidize ammonia at pH 2.5.

TL;DR: Proteomics and stable isotope fractionation are used to show that a thermophilic sulfate-reducing bacterium, isolated from the deep subsurface, uses both pathways of methanol conversion, the first report of a microorganism utilizing two distinct methanl conversion pathways.
