Insights into the genome structure of four acetogenic bacteria with specific reference to the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2019
Acetogenic bacteria are obligate anaerobes with the ability of converting carbon dioxide and other one‐carbon substrates into acetate through the Wood–Ljungdahl (WL) pathway.

Reprogramming acetogenic bacteria with CRISPR-targeted base editing via deamination [PDF]

open access: yesACS Synthetic Biology, 2020
Abstract Acetogenic bacteria are rising in popularity as chassis microbes in biotechnology due to their capability of converting inorganic one-carbon (C1) gases to organic chemicals. To fully uncover the potential of acetogenic bacteria, synthetic-biology tools are imperative to either engineer designed functions or ...

Profiling temporal dynamics of acetogenic communities in anaerobic digesters using next-generation sequencing and T-RFLP [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Acetogens play a key role in anaerobic degradation of organic material and in maintaining biogas process efficiency. Profiling this community and its temporal changes can help evaluate process stability and function, especially under disturbance/stress ...

Non-Growth-Associated Demethylation of Dimethylsulfoniopropionate by (Homo)acetogenic Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2001
ABSTRACT The demethylation of the algal osmolyte dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) to methylthiopropionate (MTPA) by (homo)acetogenic bacteria was studied. Five Eubacterium limosum strains (including the type strain), Sporomusa ovata DSM 2662 T ...

Overcoming Energetic Barriers in Acetogenic C1 Conversion

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
Currently one of the biggest challenges for society is to combat global warming. A solution to this global threat is the implementation of a CO2-based bioeconomy and a H2-based bioenergy economy.

Methanol and methyl group conversion in acetogenic bacteria: biochemistry, physiology and application

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2020
ABSTRACTThe production of bulk chemicals mostly depends on exhausting petroleum sources and leads to emission of greenhouse gases. Within the last decades the urgent need for alternative sources has increased and the development of bio-based processes received new attention.

2,3-Butanediol production using acetogenic bacteria

open access: yes, 2017
Expected depletion of oil and fossil resources urges the development of new alternative routes for production of bulk chemicals and fuels beyond petroleum resources. An alternative process is offered by 3rd generation of biotechnological fermentation which is based on utilization of synthesis gas (syngas; mainly consisting of CO and H2).

Extracellular Electron Uptake by Acetogenic Bacteria: Does H2 Consumption Favor the H2 Evolution Reaction on a Cathode or Metallic Iron?

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Some acetogenic bacteria are capable of using solid electron donors, such as a cathode or metallic iron [Fe(0)]. Acetogens using a cathode as electron donor are of interest for novel applications such as microbial electrosynthesis, while microorganisms ...

Obligate autotrophy at the thermodynamic limit of life in a new acetogenic bacterium

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
One of the important current issues of bioenergetics is the establishment of the thermodynamic limits of life. There is still no final understanding of what is the minimum value of the energy yield of a reaction that is sufficient to be used by an ...
