| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to identify the metabolic function that promotes decomposition of organic substrates (e.g., propionate and butyrate) by "syntrophy" which is knows as a microbial interaction between syntrophic substrate metabolizers (syntrophs) and methanogenic archaea (methanogens), we aimed to elucidate the metabolic function of syntrophs and methanogens from their genomic information. As a result, we successfully identify the dominant microbial constituents that inhabit the syntrophy-associated methanogenic microbiota. The genomes of three butyrate-oxidizing syntrophs encode genes involved in degradation pathway of butyrate and biological energy conservation systems that require for the degradation. In conclusion, these metabolic functions contribute to the stabilization and promotion of biodegradation in anaerobic ecosystem.
