Our article showing energy production from air alone is in PNAS today. This paper provides an ultimate biochemical proof that microbes can survive simply by 'making' energy from air (making two ATP per molecule atmospheric H2 consumed) and has biotech applications. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

All cells require a continuous supply of the universal energy currency, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), to drive countless cellular reactions. The un...

"MIRRI-ERIC fully supports the importance of maintaining physical type strains as NTs, while also recommending genome sequence data that meet SeqCode's quality standards as additional NTs." 👏

In recent discussions, the rules on prokaryotic nomenclature have sparked debate for various reasons. Our team (MIRRI-ERIC) presents a solution to harmonize ICNP and SeqCode, benefiting microbial ecologists and microbiologists alike. read more: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #nomenclature

Yes, having a spirit of reconciliation is a way forward. There is hope to mitigate the aggressiveness of those who have not wanted to understand!
Thanks MIRRI @pravrahi.bsky.social & thanks @seqcode.bsky.social for the against-stream efforts! 💪🏽

Microbial species? OK, but... how?

Ecological cohesiveness, coupled to unbiased horizontal gene flow, may account for the observed species and intraspecies clusters
