Methanogens represent a large group of
anisms which share three features
Formation of methane as the major product of their
energy metabolism
They are strict anaerobes
They are members of the domain Archaea
The three domains of life
Lipid bonds in Bacteria Eukarya and Archaea
Etherlipids in Archaea
Side chains consist of repeating isoprene units
Structure of archaeal membranes
Glycerol-diether Glycerol-tetraether
Anaerobic degradation anic matter
Complex polymers
harides lipids proteins
Hydrolysis
Monomers
sugars fatty acids amino acids
Fermentation
