    Symbiosis of methanogenic bacteria and sapropelic protozoa (1983)
    Springer
    Archives of microbiology 136 (1983), S. 89-95 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-072X
    Keywords: Coenzyme F420 ; Compound F342 ; Endosymbiosis ; Interspecies H2-transfer ; Methane production ; Methanogenic bacteria ; Metopus striatus ; Pelomyxa palustris ; Sapropelic protozoa-Urkaryotes

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Fluorescent bacteria were demonstrated to be abundantly spread as single cells throughout the cytoplasm of the giant amoeba Pelomyxa palustris, the sapropelic ciliate Metopus striatus and six other anaerobic protozoa examined. The endosymbionts of P. palustris and M. striatus were identified as methanogenic bacteria on the basis of the presence of the deazaflavin coenzyme F420 and the pterin compound F342. Moreover individuals of P. palustris produced methane over a long period of incubation. The number of methanogenic bacteria was above 1010 cells/ml protozoal cytoplasm. Two types of methanogenic bacteria together with unidentified thick bacteria were found in P. palustris. The physiological background of this endosymbiosis and its functioning in degradation processes in the anoxic environment are discussed.

    Methanobacterium formicicum, an endosymbiont of the anaerobic ciliateMetopus striatus McMurrich (1984)
    Springer
    Archives of microbiology 139 (1984), S. 1-7 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-072X
    Keywords: Endosymbiosis ; Hydrogenosome ; Methanobacterium formicicum ; Methanogenic bacteria ; Metopus striatus ; Sapropelic protozoa
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract The Gram-positive methanogenic endosymbiont of the sapropelic ciliateMetopus striatus was isolated and identified asMethanobacterium formicicum. In the ciliate cell the methanogens are in close association with microbody-like organelles. No mitochondria could be detected. The nature of the microbodies and the physiological background of the observed association are discussed.
