The paper investigates anaerobic methane oxidation in the Orca Basin, identifying ANME-2a's role at high salinity and revealing microbial communities involved in methane cycling.

This study shows anaerobic methanotrophic consortia can oxidize carbon monoxide as an alternative electron donor, supporting cell maintenance rather than growth.

The paper analyzes viral communities in alkane-degrading enrichments, finding abiotic factors influence composition and potential roles in host physiology.

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

CABO-16S improves 16S rRNA-based identification of prokaryotes and eukaryotes by integrating bacterial, archaeal, and organelle sequences, enhancing classification of environmental samples.

The paper investigates microbial communities within and on methane seep carbonates, revealing distinct diversity and activity patterns, including potential new pMMO diversity and reactivation of AOM under dynamic conditions.

The paper introduces a deep learning model called FIND to predict protein function from amino acid sequences, revealing structurally and functionally relevant features in proteins.
