This study shows deep-sea microbes degrade chitin and couple it to extracellular electron transfer using syntrophic interactions in anoxic sediments.

This study shows that sulfur redox intermediates sustain microbial activity in sulfate-limited methane seep sediments by driving sulfur transformations and anaerobic methane oxidation.

The paper characterizes the microbial community of Auka vents, revealing high diversity, novel metabolic traits, and evidence of long-distance species transfer and thermophilic evolution.
