Unraveling anaerobic indole degradation in an acclimated sludge consortium: Candidate pathways and microbial division of labor inferred from metagenomic and metatranscriptomic analyses.

Indole is a widespread nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound in manure, sludge, and wastewater systems, yet the enzymes and microbial populations involved in its anaerobic transformation remain poorly resolved. Here, we established a long-term acclimated anaerobic sludge consortium and combined degradation assays,...
