Exact excerpt
Transcriptomics revealed that growing cells overcome CO2 scarcity in the simulated Enceladus soda ocean by overexpressing the reductive acetyl-CoA pathway for CO2 fixation, which enabled efficient scavenging of CO2 at extremely low concentrations. The carbon and energy metabolism of M. okinawensis was entirely fueled by the abiotic H2 derived from the simulated Enceladus mineral-water reactions.
