A genomic view on syntrophic versus non-syntrophic lifestyle of anaerobic fatty acid-degrading bacteria
In sulfate-reducing and methanogenic environments complex biopolymers are degraded by fermentative micro-organisms that produce hydrogen, carbon dioxide and short chain fatty acids. Degradation of short chain fatty acids can be coupled to methanogenesis or to sulfate reduction. We applied a genomic...
