Abstract The growing global population and higher living standards instantly demand the transition in direction of a sustainable food system. A substantial section means agricultural lands are presently committed to protein-rich feed production rear livestock for human consumption. Conversely, accelerated farming activities industry have rendered drastic increase waste which impair economic environmental sustainability ecosystem. This situation emerges need developing an integrated technology management improve footprints. Microbial protein (MP) based on renewable electron carbon sources has potential as substitute source. MP animal use is fast derived from bacteria, algae, fungi including yeast. produced all types microbes currently commercialized use. However, novel methods processes also under investigation make more economical sustainable. Current research concentrated valorization materials by using high content-containing microorganisms, can then be used feed. Using such kind approach, agroindustry resources upcycling contribute towards finding sustainable, cheaper, environment-friendly sources. review first describes feedstock summarizes recent progress application MP-producing microorganisms fungus, yeast, phototrophic microbes.

Microbially mediated nitrogen cycling in carbon-dominated cold seep environments remains poorly understood. So far anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME-2) and their sulfate-reducing bacterial partners (SEEP-SRB1 clade) have been identified as diazotrophs deep sea sediments. However, it is unclear whether other microbial groups can perform fixation such ecosystems. To fill this gap, we analyzed 61 metagenomes, 1428 metagenome-assembled genomes, six metatranscriptomes derived from 11 globally distributed seeps. These sediments contain phylogenetically diverse nitrogenase genes corresponding to an expanded diversity of diazotrophic lineages. Diverse catabolic pathways were predicted provide ATP for fixation, suggesting diazotrophy seeps not necessarily associated with sulfate-dependent oxidation methane. Nitrogen among various inferred be genetically mobile subject purifying selection. Our findings extend the capacity five candidate phyla (Altarchaeia, Omnitrophota, FCPU426, Caldatribacteriota UBA6262), suggest that might contribute substantially global balance.

Abstract Anaerobic methanotrophic (ANME) archaea are environmentally important, uncultivated microorganisms that oxidize the potent greenhouse gas methane. During methane oxidation, ANME engage in extracellular electron transfer (EET) with other microbes, metal oxides, and electrodes through unclear mechanisms. Here, we cultivate ANME-2d ( ‘Ca . Methanoperedens’) bioelectrochemical systems observe strong methane-dependent current (91–93% of total current) associated high enrichment ‘ Ca Methanoperedens’ on anode (up to 82% community), as determined by metagenomics transmission microscopy. Electrochemical metatranscriptomic analyses suggest EET mechanism is similar at various electrode potentials, possible involvement an uncharacterized short-range transport protein complex OmcZ nanowires.

At marine cold seeps, gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons migrate from deep subsurface origins to the sediment-water interface. Cold seep sediments are known host taxonomically diverse microorganisms, but little is about their metabolic potential depth distribution in relation hydrocarbon electron acceptor availability. Here we combined geophysical, geochemical, metagenomic metabolomic measurements profile microbial activities at a newly discovered sea. Metagenomic profiling revealed compositional functional differentiation between near-surface deeper layers. In both sulfate-rich sulfate-depleted depths, various archaeal bacterial community members actively oxidizing thermogenic anaerobically. Depth distributions of hydrocarbon-oxidizing archaea that they not necessarily associated with sulfate reduction, which especially surprising for anaerobic ethane butane oxidizers. Overall, these findings link subseafloor microbiomes biochemical mechanisms degradation deeply-sourced hydrocarbons.
