Methylocystis sp. Strain SC2 Acclimatizes to Increasing NH4+ Levels by a Precise Rebalancing of Enzymes and Osmolyte Composition

ABSTRACT A high NH4+ load is known to inhibit bacterial methane oxidation. This is due to a competition between CH4 and NH3 for the active site of particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO), which converts CH4 to CH3OH. Here, we combined global proteomics with amino acid profiling and nitrogen oxides...
