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.

Increased productivity of Clostridium acetobutylicum fermentation of acetone, butanol, and ethanol by pervaporation through supported ionic liquid membrane [PDF]
, 2008 Pervaporation proved to be one of the best methods to remove solvents out of a solvent producing Clostridium acetobutylicum culture. By using an ionic liquid (IL)-polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) ultrafiltration membrane (pore size 60 nm), we could guarantee ...

Pentose Metabolism in Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1969 L-Arabinose ketol-isomerase (EC 5. 3. 1. 4) was extracted from the L-arabinose-grown cells of Clostridium acetobutylicum and partially purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography and the gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. Optimum pH and temperature for the activity of the enzyme were 7.5 and 37°C, respectively.

Cellulolytic Activity of Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985 Clostridium acetobutylicum NRRL B527 and ATCC 824 exhibited extracellular and cell-bound endoglucanase and cellobiase activities during growth in a chemically defined medium with cellobiose as the sole source of carbohydrate. For both strains, the endoglucanase was found to be mainly extracellular (70 to 90%) during growth in ...

Xylanolytic Activity of Clostridium acetobutylicum [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985 Of 20 strains of Clostridium spp. screened, 17 hydrolyzed larch wood xylan. Two strains of Clostridium acetobutylicum, NRRL B527 and ATCC 824, hydrolyzed xylan but failed to grow on solid media with larch xylan as the sole carbon source; however, strain ATCC 824 was subsequently found to grow
