There Must be an Acetogen Somewhere [PDF]
In the beginning of 1983, when I was a post-doctoral student at the University of Illinois, Ralph Wolfe handed me an offprint of a long article and said: “Read this!” That paper was the review by Thauer et al. (1977) on “Energy conservation in chemotrophic anaerobic bacteria.” I have read it many times.

Energetics and Application of Heterotrophy in Acetogenic Bacteria [PDF]
ABSTRACTAcetogenic bacteria are a diverse group of strictly anaerobic bacteria that utilize the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway for CO2fixation and energy conservation. These microorganisms play an important part in the global carbon cycle and are a key component of the anaerobic food web.

Defining Genomic and Predicted Metabolic Features of the Acetobacterium Genus
Acetogens are anaerobic bacteria capable of fixing CO2 or CO to produce acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and ultimately acetate using the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP).

Reprogramming the metabolism of an acetogenic bacterium to homoformatogenesis
Abstract Methyl groups are abundant in anoxic environments and their utilization as carbon and energy sources by microorganisms involves oxidation of the methyl groups to CO2, followed by transfer of the electrons to an acceptor. In acetogenic bacteria, the electron acceptor is CO2 that is reduced to enzyme bound carbon monoxide, the ...

Energy Conservation in Acetogenic Bacteria [PDF]
The anaerobic way of life comprises a great metabolic diversity and, correspondingly, diversity of energy-generating mechanisms ([52][1]). The facultative anaerobes have a respiratory system that uses preferentially oxygen, but in the absence of oxygen and presence of alternative electron ...

Baltic Sea methanogens compete with acetogens for electrons from metallic iron [PDF]
Microbially induced corrosion of metallic iron (Fe0)-containing structures is an environmental and economic hazard. Methanogens are abundant in low-sulfide environments and yet their specific role in Fe0 corrosion is poorly understood.

Biotransformations of aromatic aldehydes by acetogenic bacteria [PDF]
Vanillin was subject to O demethylation and supported growth of Clostridium formicoaceticum and Clostridium thermoaceticum. Vanillin was also stimulatory to the CO-dependent growth of Peptostreptococcus productus. The aldehyde substituent of vanillin was metabolized by routes which were dependent upon both the acetogen and a co-metabolizable substrate (
