Recovery of particulate methane monooxygenase structure and activity in a lipid bilayer

Christopher W. Koo et al.

Summary: Bacterial methane oxidation using pMMO can be restored by reconstitution in nanodiscs, and the structures of pMMO in a lipid environment have been determined by cryo-electron microscopy. These findings provide important insights for understanding and engineering the function of pMMO.

Potential virus-mediated nitrogen cycling in oxygen-depleted oceanic waters

M. Consuelo Gazitua et al.

Summary: Viruses play a crucial role in marine ecosystems by reprogramming microbial metabolism through auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs). A study found that viruses in Eastern Tropical South Pacific OMZ waters can impact nitrogen cycling processes, suggesting their significant contribution to global nitrogen loss.

Role of Ammonia Oxidation in Organic Micropollutant Transformation during Wastewater Treatment: Insights from Molecular, Cellular, and Community Level Observations

Qingxian Su et al.

Summary: Organic micropollutants (OMPs) can be biotransformed by ammonia-oxidizing bacteria through direct and indirect enzymatic reactions, primarily via hydroxylation and deamination. Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria play a key role in OMP biotransformation during wastewater treatment processes, especially through the activity of the ammonia monooxygenase enzyme.

Cometabolism of 17α-ethynylestradiol by nitrifying bacteria depends on reducing power availability and leads to elevated nitric oxide formation

Qi Sheng et al.

Summary: The study found that cometabolism of EE2 requires sufficient reducing power for activation, which is related to ammonia oxidation. During EE2 cometabolism, nitric oxide emission increases, along with significantly upregulated nirK genes.

Verrucomicrobial methanotrophs grow on diverse C3 compounds and use a homolog of particulate methane monooxygenase to oxidize acetone

Samuel Imisi Awala et al.

Summary: Short-chain alkanes emitted from geological sources contribute to atmospheric pollution. Microorganisms from acidic geothermal environments can co-metabolize propane with methane, with specific enzymes like PMO3 showing strict substrate specificity for ketones rather than alkanes. Another enzyme, PMO2, may be responsible for the co-metabolic oxidation of propane to 2-propanol in these bacteria.
