Enoyl-Coenzyme A Respiration via Formate Cycling in Syntrophic Bacteria Open
The syntrophic interaction of fermenting bacteria and methanogenic archaea is important for the global carbon cycle. As an example, it accomplishes the conversion of biomass-derived saturated fatty acid fermentation intermediates into meth…

Degradation of dibutyl phthalate by Paenarthrobacter sp. Shss isolated from Saravan landfill, Hyrcanian Forests, Iran Open
Phthalic acid esters are predominantly used as plasticizers and are industrially produced on the million ton scale per year. They exhibit endocrine-disrupting, carcinogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic effects on wildlife and humans. For th…

The missing enzymatic link in syntrophic methane formation from fatty acids Open
Significance The syntrophic interaction of fermenting bacteria with methanogenic archaea is crucial for the globally relevant conversion of biomass into methane. Fifty years after the discovery of syntrophy, it has remained enigmatic how t…

Functional Characterization of Three Specific Acyl-Coenzyme A Synthetases Involved in Anaerobic Cholesterol Degradation in Sterolibacterium denitrificans Chol1S Open
The denitrifying betaproteobacterium Sterolibacterium denitrificans Chol1S catabolizes steroids such as cholesterol via an oxygen-independent pathway. It involves enzyme reaction sequences described for aerobic cholesterol and bile acid de…
