A Cytochrome c-Containing Periplasmic Nitrate Reductase in the Acetogen Sporomusa ovata. [PDF]
Sporomusa ovata is one of the few acetogenic bacteria that have cytochromes and quinones, but their role is unknown. In addition to reducing CO2 to acetate, S.

Absolute Proteome Quantification in the Gas-Fermenting Acetogen Clostridium autoethanogenum
Microbes that can recycle one-carbon (C1) greenhouse gases into fuels and chemicals are vital for the biosustainability of future industries. Acetogens are the most efficient known microbes for fixing carbon oxides CO2 and CO.

Acetogens share the capacity to convert H2 and CO2 into acetate for energy conservation (ATP synthesis). This reaction is attractive for applications, such as gas fermentation and microbial electrosynthesis.

Formate-Dependent Acetogenic Utilization of Glucose by the Fecal Acetogen Clostridium bovifaecis
The acetyl-CoA pathway is an ancient pathway of CO2 fixation, which converts 2 mol of CO2 into acetyl-CoA. Autotrophic growth with H2 and CO2 via the acetyl-CoA pathway as the terminal electron accepting process is the most unique feature of acetogenic ...

Metabolic changes of the acetogen Clostridium sp. AWRP through adaptation to acetate challenge
In this study, we report the phenotypic changes that occurred in the acetogenic bacterium Clostridium sp. AWRP as a result of an adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) under the acetate challenge. Acetate-adapted strain 46 T-a displayed acetate tolerance to

The pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase of the thermophilic acetogen, Thermoanaerobacter kivui
Pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFOR) is a key enzyme in bacterial anaerobic metabolism. Since a low‐potential ferredoxin (Fd2−) is used as electron carrier, PFOR allows for hydrogen evolution during heterotrophic growth as well as pyruvate synthesis

Carboxydotrophic Acetogenesis in Alkaline Conditions Results in Transient Formate Production by the Halo-Alkaliphilic Acetogen Haloacetibacter carboxydivorans Gen. Nov. sp. Nov. [PDF]
This work presents the physiological exploration of the halo‐alkaliphilic, carboxydotrophic acetogen bacterium MD4. In contrast to well‐characterised neutrophilic and slightly acidophilic acetogenic carboxydotrophs, this work shows an important role for formate production, instead of ethanol, as a redox exhaust mechanism in alkaline conditions ...
