#Methanogens acquire and bioaccumulate #nickel during reductive dissolution of nickelian #pyrite: Rachel Spietz et al. https://journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/aem.00991-23
"These findings help differentiate between two competing hypotheses about the reduction in atmospheric #methane billions of years ago that was likely caused by a reduction in the #methanogen population."
Capturing #CO2 with electricity: A microbial enzyme inspires electrochemistry!
Scientists from our Microbial Metabolism Group & the Univ. of Radboud and Geneva isolated a microbial enzyme & branched it on an electrode to efficiently and unidirectionally convert CO2 to formate.
Out now @ "Angewandte Chemie Int. Ed."

"#Methanogens can thrive across a range of temperature extremes, from -2.5 to 122 °C, making them ideal candidates to study temperature adaptation... Thermotolerant organisms had smaller genomes and a higher fraction of core genome."
