• A review of soil NO transformation: associated processes and possible physiological significance on organisms (2015, background): “…methane monooxygenase 910 (MMO), methanol dehydrogenase (MDH), formate dehydrogenase (FDH) 911 and nitrite or nitric oxide reductase, which has been found in slow-growing 912 Gram-negative bacteria Candidatus ‘Methylomirabilis oxyfera’ belonging to 913 the phylum NC10 (Ettwig et al., 2010).”
• Ecological Aspects of the Distribution of Different Autotrophic CO2 Fixation Pathways (2011, background): “For example, anaerobic methane oxidation with sulfate is thermodynamically less favorable than O2-mediated “anaerobic” methane oxidation with nitrite, and autotrophy proceeds in these species either via the reductive acetyl-CoA pathway or the CB cycle, with respect to the energy demands (32, 40).”
• Degradation of BTEX by anaerobic bacteria: physiology and application (2010, background): “Oxygen formation linked to denitrification was recently shown for anaerobic methane-degrading culture (Ettwig et al. 2010).”
