Abstract

In this study, we demonstrate that different TBDTs in the model methanotroph Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b are responsible for uptake of either endogenous MB or exogenous MB. Interestingly, the presence of exogenous MB induces expression of its specific TBDT in M. trichosporium OB3b, suggesting that this methanotroph is able to actively take up MB produced by others.
