Under simulated hydrothermal vent conditions, Ni⋅Co bimetallic catalysts supported on silica convert CO2 and H2O into key metabolites such as formate, methanol, and ethanol. Water plays a critical role in CO2 adsorption and product selectivity, shaping catalytic performance across both liquid and gas phases.

A Third Way of Energy Conservation in Acetogenic Bacteria
Acetogenic bacteria grow by making acetate from CO 2 and are considered the first life forms on Earth since they couple CO 2 reduction to the conservation of energy. How this is achieved has been an enigma ever since.

A Reproducible Plasmid Platform for Sporomusa sphaeroides to Support Bioelectrochemical Studies
Robust genetic tools are a prerequisite for causal, perturbation-based tests of redox physiology in acetogens. Here we establish practical genetic entry points for Sporomusa sphaeroides DSM 2875 under strictly anaerobic handling.

Efficient conversion of organic waste to biogas depends on the coordinated optimization of feedstock composition, pretreatment, operational parameters, reactor design, and microbial community dynamics. This review highlights how these interacting factors improve methane yield and process stability, advancing anaerobic digestion as a practical pathway ...

Physiology of the thermophilic acetogen Moorella thermoacetica
Moorella thermoacetica (originally isolated as Clostridium thermoaceticum) has served as the primary acetogenic bacterium for the resolution of the acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) or Wood-Ljungdahl pathway, a metabolic pathway that (i) autotrophically assimilates CO2 and (ii) is centrally important to the turnover of carbon in many habitats. The purpose

CO Metabolism in the Thermophilic Acetogen Thermoanaerobacter kivui [PDF]
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 ...

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

ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

Adaptation of the acetogen Clostridium thermoautotrophicum to minimal medium [PDF]
Clostridium thermoautotrophicum was adapted to minimal medium and cultivated at the expense of glucose, methanol, or H2-CO2. No supplemental amino acids were required for growth of the adapted strain, and nicotinic acid was the sole essential vitamin.
