Project description:The majority of potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions originate from microbially mediated reactions. The enzyme N2O reductase is the only known biological N2O sink and has evolved in two phylogenetically distinct lineages (clades I and II). Clade II is of particular interest for biotechnology as it is often associated with non-denitrifying N2O reducers. In this study, Laureni et al. investigated the environmental conditions that select for clade II. To do so, we enriched two N2O-respiring communities at low dilution rates, under both electron donor (acetate) and electron acceptor (N2O) limitations, in order to assess the impact of substrate affinity and N2O cytotoxicity on community assembly. We used a combination of genome-resolved metagenomics and shotgun metaproteomics to identify the taxonomy and metabolic potential of the steady-state community members.

Project description:We report here the genome sequences of the novel isolates G62T and G98T from rhodoliths. The nearly complete genomes consisted of 4.7 Mbp (4,233 coding sequences [CDS]) for G62T and 4.5 Mbp (4,085 CDS) for G98T. Genomic taxonomy places these new genomes into 2 new species.
