Diversity, Ecology, and Isolation of Acetogenic Bacteria
1994The characteristic property of homoacetogenic bacteria is their ability to use carbon dioxide as a widespread and easily available electron sink and to reduce it via the carbon monoxide dehydrogenase system to acetate as their typical fermentation product.

Molecular Hydrogen and Energy Conservation in Methanogenic and Acetogenic Bacteria
1990Molecular hydrogen is a minor constituent of our atmosphere amounting to about 0.5 ppm (Anonymus, 1976). Nevertheless, it plays an important role in the conversion of organic matter by microorganisms. Although H2 is produced in large amounts, it is rapidly consumed, and can be considered as a very convenient vehicle for transport electrons from one ...

A comparison of different methods to determine the hydrophobicity of acetogenic bacteria
Journal of Microbiological Methods, 1993Abstract The hydrophobicity of anaerobic acetogenic bacteria was determined using variuos methods (bacterial adherence to hydrocarbons, hydrophobic interaction chromatography and the salt aggregation test) under a wide range of growth conditions.

Acetogenic bacteria: what are the in situ consequences of their diverse metabolic versatilities?
BioFactors, 1997AbstractThe four decades of the now classic studies by Harland G. Wood and Lars G. Ljungdahl lead to the resolution of the autotrophic acetyl‐CoA 'Wood/Ljungdahl' pathway of acetogenesis. This pathway is the hallmark of acetogens, but is also used by other bacteria, including methanogens and sulfate‐reducing bacteria, for both catabolic and anabolic ...

Metabolic engineering of acetogenic bacteria using CO gas-sensing transcriptional ON/OFF modules
Metabolic EngineeringDynamic sensing of gas substrates like toxic carbon monoxide (CO) in living microbial cells is often limited due to the lack of suitable biosensors.

Development of DNA Probes for the Detection and Identification of Acetogenic Bacteria
1994Acetogenic bacteria may play an important role in anaerobic environments by supplying acetate, a major substrate for terminal carbon metabolism (Christensen, 1984; Parkes et al., 1989; Smith and Klug, 1981; Zeikus, 1977). Unfortunately, although acetogens are readily isolated and appear to occur in significant numbers in many anaerobic habitats (Braun ...
