Abstrakt: | Methanotrophs are the sole biological sink of methane. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by heterotrophic bacteria have been demonstrated to be a potential modulating factor of methane consumption. Here, we identify and disentangle the impact of the volatolome of heterotrophic bacteria on the methanotroph activity and proteome, using Methylomonas as model organism. Our study unambiguously shows how methanotrophy can be influenced by other organisms without direct physical contact. This influence is mediated by VOCs (e.g. dimethyl-polysulphides) or/and CO2 emitted during respiration, which can inhibit growth and methane uptake of the methanotroph, while other VOCs had a stimulating effect on methanotroph activity. Depending on whether the methanotroph was exposed to the volatolome of the heterotroph or to CO2, proteomics revealed differential protein expression patterns with the soluble methane monooxygenase being the most affected enzyme. The interaction between methanotrophs and heterotrophs can have strong positive or negative effects on methane consumption, depending on the species interacting with the methanotroph. We identified potential VOCs involved in the inhibition while positive effects may be triggered by CO2 released by heterotrophic respiration. Our experimental proof of methanotroph-heterotroph interactions clearly calls for detailed research into strategies on how to mitigate methane emissions. (© The Author(s) 2024.
