Thermophilic fermentation of acetoin and 2,3-butanediol by a novel Geobacillus strain

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2012
Background Acetoin and 2,3-butanediol are two important biorefinery platform chemicals. They are currently fermented below 40°C using mesophilic strains, but the processes often suffer from bacterial contamination. Results This work reports the isolation

Structure-Based Design of Acetolactate Synthase From Bacillus licheniformis Improved Protein Stability Under Acidic Conditions

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Catabolic acetolactate synthase (cALS) plays a crucial role in the quality of liquor because of its ability to catalyze the synthesis of the endogenous precursor product α-acetolactate of the aromatic compound tetramethylpyrazine (TTMP) and acetoin ...

Volatile Organic Compounds Emitted by Fungi Have Substantial Effects on Growth and Disease Resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 7168-7190, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by certain fungi have previously been suggested to modulate plant development and their response to stresses. While some fungal species, such as Trichoderma harzianum, are known to produce VOCs, the production of VOCs in other phylogenetically divergent species, such as Mucor mucedo, was previously ...

Acetolactate and Acetoin Synthesis in Ripening Peas [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1964
The role of acetolactate as a precursor in valine biosynthesis was first indicated by the isotopic studies of Strassman et al. (18) and was subsequently supported by work on valine-less mutants of Escherichia coli (21, 22) and Neurospora, crassa (24).

Enantiomeric differentiation of three key volatile compounds in three different palm wines (Elaeis guineensis, Borassus flabellifer and Nypa fruticans)

CyTA - Journal of Food, 2018
The contents and enantiomeric distributions of three chiral compounds, linalool, phenylethanol and acetoin, were investigated in three different palm wines (i.e. Elaeis guineensis, Borassus flabellifer, and Nypa fruticans). While N.
