Project description:By using metagenome resolved protein stable isotope probing (protein-SIP) through incubations of identical reactors with 13C labelled bicarbonate over a period of 48 hours, the study aims to map differences in the metabolic behaviour of the microbial community during anaerobic digestion.
Project description:In this study, a complex microbial community from a semi-continues reactor, which only substrate is wheat straw, was incubated in a batch experiment with 13C-cellulose. protein stable isotope probing (protein-SIP) was used to identify the organisms, at high taxonomic resolution, involved in the degradation of cellulose by tracking the incorporation of 13C in the newly synthetized proteins. Thereby providing information regarding identity and function simultaneously and enable the optimization of biotechnologies for biofuels production.
