Project description:Our goal is to convert methane efficiently into liquid fuels that may be more readily transported. Since aerobic oxidation of methane is less efficient, we focused on anaerobic processes to capture methane, which are accomplished by anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) in consortia. However, no pure culture capable of oxidizing and growing on methane anaerobically has been isolated. In this study, Methanosarcina acetivorans, an archaeal methanogen, was metabolically engineered to take up methane, rather than to generate it. To capture methane, we cloned the DNA coding for the enzyme methyl-coenzyme M reductase (Mcr) from an unculturable archaeal organism from a Black Sea mat into M. acetivorans to effectively run methanogenesis in reverse. The engineered strain produces primarily acetate, and our results demonstrate that pure cultures can grow anaerobically on methane.
Project description:ForJ, ForF and ForZ are cluster situated regulators of the formicamycin biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces forimcae. This ChIP Sequencing experiment was conducted to identify where in the genome these regulators bind in order to identify which transcripts they might regulate.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in Thermoplasma acidophilum cultured under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The analysis are further described in Na Sun, Cuiping Pan, Stephan Nickell, Matthias Mann, Wolfgang Baumeister, and István Nagy, Quantitative proteome and transcriptome analysis of the archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum cultured under aerobic and anaerobic conditions (submitted).
