Are there any probiotics found to counter the production of TMAO?

Hi,
As many know, studies have come out that points to production of TMAO when foods or supplements that contain L-Carnitine or Choline are consumed.
My questions is:
first of all which bacteria are the ones that produce TMAO?
and secondly, are there any strains of bacteria that can somehow either stop or deactivate the production of TMAO?

Thanks so much
Peyt
