This study shows Nitrospira moscoviensis oxidizes atmospheric hydrogen using a high-affinity hydrogenase, enhancing its growth and survival under varying nitrite conditions.

This study shows Mycobacterium smegmatis resists carbon monoxide by using cytochrome bd oxidase and shows minimal proteomic changes.

This study resolves the biosynthesis pathway of F420 in mycobacteria by showing phosphoenolpyruvate, not 2-phospholactate, is the precursor and identifies the structural mechanism of dehydro-F420-0 production.

This study shows that carbon monoxide dehydrogenases enhance bacterial survival by providing a supplemental energy source during organic carbon starvation.

This study shows two Chloroflexi classes can persist using atmospheric hydrogen and carbon monoxide as energy sources through horizontal gene transfer.
