There Must be an Acetogen Somewhere [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
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]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2016
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.

Enrichment of Anaerobic Syngas-Converting Communities and Isolation of a Novel Carboxydotrophic Acetobacterium wieringae Strain JM

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Syngas is a substrate for the anaerobic bioproduction of fuels and valuable chemicals. In this study, anaerobic sludge was used for microbial enrichments with synthetic syngas and acetate as main substrates.

A Third Way of Energy Conservation in Acetogenic Bacteria

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Acetogenic bacteria are a group of strictly anaerobic bacteria that make a living from acetate formation from two molecules of CO2 via the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP).

Ethanol and Acetic Acid Production from Carbon Monoxide in a Clostridium Strain in Batch and Continuous Gas-Fed Bioreactors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The effect of different sources of nitrogen as well as their concentrations on the bioconversion of carbon monoxide to metabolic products such as acetic acid and ethanol by Clostridium autoethanogenum was studied.

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 ...

Gas fermentation for microbial sustainable aviation fuel production [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Australia, 2023
The challenge of limiting global warming to below 1.5°C requires all industries to implement new technologies and change practices immediately. The aviation industry contributes 2% of human-induced CO2 emissions and 12% of all transport emissions ...

Syntrophic degradation of fatty acids by methanogenic communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In methanogenic environments degradation of fatty acids is a key process in the conversion of organic matter to methane and carbon dioxide. For degradation of fatty acids with three or more carbon atoms syntrophic communities are required.

Biological Conversion of Formate to Organic Compounds: Toward a Sustainable Formate Bioeconomy

open access: yesCarbon Energy, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Formate bioconversion plays a crucial role in achieving renewable resource utilization and sustainable development. To tap its full potential, it is important to identify the most appropriate microbial hosts for incorporating formate into building blocks, design the most promising metabolic pathways for transmitting formate into central carbon ...
