Carbon isotopic fractionation in lipids from methanotrophic bacteria II : the effects of physiology and environmental parameters on the biosynthesis and isotopic signatures of biomarkers

Controls on the carbon isotopic signatures of methanotroph biomarkers have been further explored using cultured organisms. Growth under conditions which select for the membrane-bound particulate form of the methane monooxygenase enzyme (pMMO) leads to a significantly higher isotopic fractionation th...
