Cofactor F₄₂₀ tail length distribution in different environmental samples.

ABSTRACT: Cofactor F₄₂₀ is an electron carrier playing a crucial role in a variety of microorganisms during redox reactions of the primary and secondary metabolism due to its low redox potential and thus arouses increasing interest. In this study, cofactor F₄₂₀ glutamyl tail length spectra in various habitats like manure, compost, soil, and digester sludge samples and their respective microbial communities were investigated using high performance liquid chromatography and an amplicon sequencing approach A previous in-silico study was used to identify F₄₂₀ producing microorganisms. The highest concentration of cofactor F₄₂₀ could be achieved in the horse manure, digester sludge, and mixed manure samples, which was approximately 100-fold higher than i
