The unique biochemistry of methanogenesis
U Deppenmeier - 2002 - Elsevier
Methanogenic archaea have an unusual type of metabolism because they use H 2+ CO 2,
formate, methylated C 1 compounds, or acetate as energy and carbon sources for growth …

Symbiosis between methanogenic archaea and δ-proteobacteria as the origin of eukaryotes: the syntrophic hypothesis
We present a novel hypothesis for the origin of the eukaryotic cell, or eukaryogenesis, based
on a metabolic symbiosis (syntrophy) between a methanogenic archaeon (methanobacterial …
