Methane-Producing Microorganism Makes a Meal of Iron
A new understanding of how an important methane-producing microorganism creates methane and carbon dioxide could eventually allow researchers to manipulate how much of these important greenhouse gases escape into the atmosphere. A new study by Penn State researchers proposes an updated biochemical pathway that explains how the microorganism uses an iron to more efficiently capture energy when producing methane. The study appears online in the journal of Science Advances.
