Annotation of the Clostridium Acetobutylicum Genome [PDF]
, 2004 The genome sequence of the solvent producing bacterium Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC824, has been determined by the shotgun approach. The genome consists of a 3.94 Mb chromosome and a 192 kb megaplasmid that contains the majority of genes responsible ...

Engineering Clostridium acetobutylicum for alcohol production
Journal of Biotechnology, 2013 While Clostridium acetobutylicum has been used for large-scale butanol production (ABE fermentation), its by-product acetone cannot be used as a biofuel. In this study, C. acetobutylicum was engineered for alcohol titers (butanol plus ethanol).

Effects of butanol on Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985 The internal pH of Clostridium acetobutylicum was determined at various stages during the growth of the organism. Even in the presence of significant quantities of acetic, butyric, and lactic acids, an internal pH of 6.2 was maintained. Experiments using N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide indicated that a functioning H+-ATPase is necessary for internal pH ...

Autolysis of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1992 The optimum conditions for autolysis of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 were determined. Autolysis was optimal at pH 6.3 and 55 degrees C in 0.1 M-sodium acetate/phosphate buffer. The ability of cells to autolyse decreased sharply at the end of the exponential phase of growth.

Oxygen and the Growth and Metabolism of Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1971 Summary: Clostridium acetobutylicum has been studied during batch cultivation at pH 7 and 35° in a glucose + casein hydrolysate + vitamins and salts medium kept (i) anaerobic (E h, – 400 to – 370 mV), (ii) aerated (E h, – 50 to 0 mV; dissolved O2, < 1 μM), and (iii) aerobic (E h, + 100 mV; dissolved O2, 40 to 50 μM).

Transcriptional organization of the Clostridium acetobutylicum genome [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2004 Prokaryotic genes are frequently organized in multicistronic operons (or transcriptional units, TUs), and usually the regulatory motifs for the whole TU are located upstream of the first TU gene. Although the number of sequenced genomes has increased dramatically, experimental information on TU organization is extremely limited.
