Article Synopsis
  • Marine bacteria, particularly those from the SAR92 clade, can break down dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), impacting the global sulfur cycle and climate.
  • The research identified two main pathways for DMSP degradation, involving DMSP lyase (DddD) and DMSP demethylase (DmdA), which produce gases like dimethylsulfide and methanethiol.
  • The findings highlight the widespread presence of SAR92 bacteria in oceans and their significance as DMSP degraders and climate-active gas sources, enhancing our understanding of oligotrophic bacteria's roles in marine environments.

A Gram-stain-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, facultative anaerobic and rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain SM1977, was isolated from the surface of coralline algae collected from the intertidal zone at Qingdao, PR China. The strain grew at 10-35 °C, pH 4.5-8.
