Check out this awesome resource for all your future microbial #genome analyses:
#GlobDB is the to date most complete genome database available!
Developed by @daanspeth.bsky.social and colleagues 🧪🦠🧬🖥️
#Urea: The Hidden Fuel for Ocean Microbes 🦠🌊
Study in @natcomms.nature.com shows how #ammonia-oxidizing #archaea thrive in nutrient-poor waters: Urea is a major energy source for #AOA in the open #ocean, while coastal AOA prefer #ammonium.

Curious on #niche differentiation of marine #AOA #Nitrosopumilus and #Nitrosopelagicus?
#Urea is (part of) the answer!
Very happy this fun study led by
