Methane-dependent denitrification by Methylomirabilis: an indirect nitrous oxide sink?

Methane-dependent complete denitrification primarily involves nitrate reduction to nitrite by ANME-2d archaea and nitrite reduction to dinitrogen by Methylomirabilis bacteria. 'Candidatus Methylomirabilis sinica' integrates the divisional labor. Physiological traits of this bacterium potentially enable the simultaneous reduction of N
