Mer overexpression in Methanosarcina acetivorans affects growth and methanogenesis during substrate adaptation

ABSTRACT Evidence suggests that multienzyme complexes are involved in biological methane production (methanogenesis), although the composition of the Wolfe Cycle methanogenesis complexes may vary between diverse methanoarchaeal taxa. Methylenetetrahydromethanopterin reductase (Mer) is the first comm...
