The deep-subsurface sulfate reducer Desulfotomaculum kuznetsovii employs two methanol-degrading pathways

Microorganisms metabolise methanol using either a methanol methyltransferase or a methanol dehydrogenase. Here, the authors use proteomics and stable isotope fractionation to show that a thermophilic sulfate-reducing bacterium, isolated from the deep subsurface, uses both pathways.
