A metagenomic study of methanotrophic microorganisms in Coal Oil Point seep sediments
BACKGROUND: Methane oxidizing prokaryotes in marine sediments are believed to function as a methane filter reducing the oceanic contribution to the global methane emission. In the anoxic parts of the sediments, oxidation of methane is accomplished by anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) living in...
