巴氏甲烷八叠球菌

甲烷菌(英語:Methanogen)為可行無氧呼吸英语Anaerobic respiration作用產生甲烷的微生物,均屬廣古菌門古菌,通常生長在厭氧的環境,如濕地沼澤、動物的消化道中與缺乏硫酸鹽的海底沉積物[1],在沼澤中可產生沼氣,在消化道則會造成打嗝[2]。多數甲烷菌不能在有氧的環境中生存,巴氏甲烷八叠球菌英语Methanosarcina barkeri為少數例外,因具有超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)而對氧氣的抗性稍強[3]。甲烷菌的細胞壁成分為假肽聚糖英语Pseudopeptidoglycan或蛋白質組成的准結晶英语Paracrystallinity結構[4]

有些甲烷菌可分解有機污染物,因而被用於處理污水[5]
