Supplementation of Sulfide or Acetate and 2-Mercaptoethane Sulfonate Restores Growth of the <i>Methanosarcina acetivorans</i> Δ<i>hdrABC</i> Deletion Mutant during Methylotrophic Methanogenesis

Supplementation of Sulfide or Acetate and 2-Mercaptoethane Sulfonate Restores Growth of the <i>Methanosarcina acetivorans</i> Δ<i>hdrABC</i> Deletion Mutant during Methylotrophic Methanogenesis

Methanogenic archaea are important organisms in the global carbon cycle that grow by producing methane gas. <i>Methanosarcina acetivorans</i> is a methanogenic archaeum that can grow using methylated compounds, carbon monoxide, or acetate and produces renewable methane as a byproduct. Ho...
