Coincidental and exciting! Anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) do like carbon monoxide - two independent studies showcasing CO metabolism across freshwater and marine ANME (ANME-2d and -2b).

ANME-2d: doi.org/10.1101/2025... (Welte lab)
ANME-2b: reposted (Orphan lab)

Microbiologists Martijn Wissink and @cuwelte.bsky.social, among others, are helping us understand how microorganisms regulate the methane balance. 🦠 🫧 The scientists have demonstrated how a methane-converting enzyme (MCR) works in detail.
