Interconnection of methanogenic and acetogenic pathways [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1983
Methanopterin displays a folate-like biochemistry: methenyl-, methylene- and methyltetrahydromethanopterin are intermediates in the process of methanogenesis. A corrinoid-enzyme is involved in methanol conversion and the possible function of such enzymes in cell-carbon synthesis and acetate conversion is discussed.

Self‐Assembled Hybrid Cell‐Enzyme Materials for Gas‐Powered Biocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 82, 12 October 2026.
Integrating living cells with programmable enzyme networks enables hybrid materials that convert gaseous feedstocks into chemical reducing power. These gas‐powered catalytic beads operate as modular, recyclable platforms for adaptive biocatalysis and sustainable synthesis.

Programming Gut Microbiome Function Through Cross‐Feeding: From Ecological Mechanisms to Live Biotherapeutics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 55, 5 October 2026.
This graphical abstract presents gut microbial cross‐feeding through a Mechanism–Technology–Application framework. It summarizes major resource‐transfer modes, the experimental and computational tools used to establish causality, and potential interventions involving dietary substrates, live biotherapeutic products, and engineered microbes.

Enzymatic Electrosynthesis for Sustainable CO2 Conversion: Advancing Circular Carbon Economy

open access: yesCarbon Energy, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
Enzymatic electrosynthesis (EES) offers molecular precision in synthesizing value‐added products from CO2. We highlight its distinct edge over alternative enzyme‐hybrid systems and analyze electron transfer pathways. Key strategies to overcome electron transfer bottlenecks and expand product diversity are addressed, and also data‐driven approaches for ...

Physiology of the thermophilic acetogen Moorella thermoacetica

open access: yesResearch in Microbiology, 2004
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

A Reproducible Plasmid Platform for Sporomusa sphaeroides to Support Bioelectrochemical Studies

open access: yesFermentation
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.

Electroactive Microbiomes: Electron Transfer Mechanisms and Environmental Biotechnology Applications

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Electroactive microbiomes couple direct, mediated, conductive, and interspecies electron transfer with biofilm organisation to drive wastewater treatment, bioremediation, resource recovery, carbon conversion, and biosensing. Their performance depends on balancing electron transfer, mass transport, community structure, and electrode–biofilm interactions

CO Metabolism in the Thermophilic Acetogen Thermoanaerobacter kivui [PDF]

open access: yesApplied 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 ...

Prebiotic aqueous reactions catalyzed by native nickel without hydrogen

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 20, Page 6100-6113, October 2026.
Serpentinizing (H2‐producing) hydrothermal vents are candidate environments for metabolic origin. They generate highly reducing conditions that convert CO2 to formate and methane in abiotic reactions resembling reactions of the acetyl‐CoA pathway of CO2 fixation. They also contain natural catalysts. Native nickel (Ni0), like Fe0, Co0, and their alloys,
