Diversity of Formyltetrahydrofolate Synthetases in the Guts of the Wood-Feeding Cockroach Cryptocercus punctulatus and the Omnivorous Cockroach Periplaneta americana [PDF]
, 2010 We examined the diversity of a marker gene for homoacetogens in two cockroach gut microbial communities. Formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase (FTHFS or fhs) libraries prepared from a wood-feeding cockroach, Cryptocercus punctulatus, were dominated by ...

There Must be an Acetogen Somewhere [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 In the beginning of 1983, when I was a post-doctoral student at the University of Illinois, Ralph Wolfe handed me an offprint of a long article and said: “Read this!” That paper was the review by Thauer et al. (1977) on “Energy conservation in chemotrophic anaerobic bacteria.” I have read it many times.

Energetics and Application of Heterotrophy in Acetogenic Bacteria [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2016 ABSTRACTAcetogenic bacteria are a diverse group of strictly anaerobic bacteria that utilize the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway for CO2fixation and energy conservation. These microorganisms play an important part in the global carbon cycle and are a key component of the anaerobic food web.

Life in Hot Carbon Monoxide: The Complete Genome Sequence of Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans Z-2901 [PDF]
, 2005 We report here the sequencing and analysis of the genome of the thermophilic bacterium Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans Z-2901. This species is a model for studies of hydrogenogens, which are diverse bacteria and archaea that grow anaerobically ...

CO Metabolism in the Thermophilic Acetogen Thermoanaerobacter kivui [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2016 ABSTRACT The thermophilic acetogenic bacterium Thermoanaerobacter kivui , previously described not to use carbon monoxide as a carbon and energy source, was adapted to grow on CO. This was achieved by using a preculture grown on H 2 plus CO 2 and by ...

Effect of ethanol and butanol on autotrophic growth of model homoacetogens [PDF]
, 2018 Research efforts aimed at increasing ethanol and butanol productivity from syngas are currently gaining attention. For most model carboxydotrophic bacteria, production rates, yields and maximum product titres have been studied in detail, but little is ...

Biological Conversion of Formate to Organic Compounds: Toward a Sustainable Formate Bioeconomy
Carbon Energy, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.Formate bioconversion plays a crucial role in achieving renewable resource utilization and sustainable development. To tap its full potential, it is important to identify the most appropriate microbial hosts for incorporating formate into building blocks, design the most promising metabolic pathways for transmitting formate into central carbon ...

Sodium bioenergetics in methanogens and acetogens [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1990 Recent investigations with Methanosarcina barkeri elucidated the role of sodium ions in the energy metabolism of methanogenic bacteria and provided evidence for a novel mechanism of energy transduction with Na+ as the coupling ion. During methanogenesis from methanol, an eletrochemical sodium gradient generated by a Na+/H+ antiporter is used as the ...
