Abstract: Under methanogenic conditions, short-chain fatty acids are common byproducts from degradation of organic compounds and conversion of these acids is an important component of the global carbon cycle. Due to the thermodynamic difficulty of propionate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/aem.00384-23
Abstract: Syntrophic propionate oxidation is one of the rate-limiting steps during anaerobic decomposition of organic matter in anoxic environments. Syntrophic propionate-oxidizing bacteria (SPOB) are members of the “rare biosphere” living at the edge of the thermodynamic… read more here.
