Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, a relatively clean burning fossil fuel, but also a renewable biofuel when biologically produced from waste treatment plants. Most (~70%) of the global methane emission comes from methanogenic archaea, namely methanogens that produce methane from simple substrates such as H2/CO2, formate, acetate, methanol, and other methylated compounds. Methanogens are found across all corners of the earth, including but not limited to wetlands, animals and humans, rice fields, landfills, sewage, ocean, termites, and hydrothermal vents. Their extensive adaptations to such a wide range of habitats predict a cross-boundary significance of methanogens in many areas such as t...
This Research Topic is part of the Electromicrobiology – From Electrons To Ecosystems: Electromicrobiology – From Electrons To Ecosystems Electromicrobiology is a rapidly evolving multidisciplinary research area dealing with extracellular electron transport (ETC) in various microbes. Microorganisms from different environments have evolved the capacity for extracellular electron exchange, beyond the outer membrane and even through a periplasmic continuum in multicellular bacteria like cable bacteria. This capacity allows them to exchange electrons with one another and to exploit electron acceptors and donors that are distantly located or cannot pass the cell envelope.
Advances in Microbial Physiology is one of the most successful and prestigious series from Academic Press, an imprint of Elsevier. It publishes topical and important reviews, interpreting physiology to include all material that contributes to our understanding of how microorganisms and their component parts work. First published in 1967, it is now in its 59th volume. The Editors have always striven to interpret microbial physiology in the broadest context and have never restricted the contents to "traditional views of whole cell physiology. Now edited by Professor Robert Poole, University of Sheffield, Advances in Microbial Physiology continues to be an influential and very well reviewed series. - 2009 impact factor of 5.750, placing it 12th in the highly competitive category of microbiology - Contributions by leading international scientists - The latest research in microbial physiology
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
Enzymes in the Valorization of Waste: Next-Gen Technological Advances for Sustainable Development of Enzyme-based Biorefinery focusses on key enzymes which are involved in the development of integrated biorefinery. It highlights the modern next-gen technologies for promoting the application of sustainable and greener enzymatic steps at industrial scale for the development of futuristic and self-sustainable "consolidated/integrated biorefinery/enzyme-based biorefinery." It also deals with technological advancement for improvement of enzyme yield or specificity, conversion capability, such as protein and metabolic engineering and advances in next generation technologies, and so forth. Features...
Recent developments in various “OMICs” fields have revolutionized our understanding of the vast diversity and ubiquity of microbes in the biosphere. However, most of the current paradigms of microbial cell biology, and our view of how microbes live and what they are capable of, are derived from in vitro experiments on isolated strains. Even the co-culturing of mixed species to interrogate community behavior is relatively new. But the majority of microorganisms lives in complex communities in natural environments, under varying conditions, and often cannot be cultivated. Unless we obtain a detailed understanding of the near-native 3D ultrastructure of individual community members, the 3D ...
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
This book unravels the recent studies in the field of microbial physiology. It also provides interesting topics for research which readers can take up. Microbial physiology refers to the biochemical examination of the microbial cell functions. It also includes an in-depth study of microbial metabolism, microbial growth, microbial cell structure, etc. While understanding the long-term perspectives of these topics, the book makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. It aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects and the recent researches in this area. Scientists and students actively engaged in the field of microbial physiology will find this book full of crucial and unexplored concepts.
