巴氏甲烷八叠球菌

甲烷菌(英语:Methanogen)为可行无氧呼吸英语Anaerobic respiration作用产生甲烷的微生物,均属广古菌门古菌,通常生长在厌氧的环境,如湿地沼泽、动物的消化道中与缺乏硫酸盐的海底沉积物[1],在沼泽中可产生沼气,在消化道则会造成打嗝[2]。多数甲烷菌不能在有氧的环境中生存,巴氏甲烷八叠球菌英语Methanosarcina barkeri为少数例外,因具有超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)而对氧气的抗性稍强[3]。甲烷菌的细胞壁成分为假肽聚糖英语Pseudopeptidoglycan或蛋白质组成的准结晶英语Paracrystallinity结构[4]

有些甲烷菌可分解有机污染物,因而被用于处理污水[5]
