Alpha proteobacterial ancestry of the [Fe-Fe]-hydrogenases in anaerobic eukaryotes [PDF]
Eukaryogenesis, a major transition in evolution of life, originated from the symbiogenic fusion of an archaea with a metabolically versatile bacterium. By general consensus, the latter organism belonged to α proteobacteria, subsequently evolving into the

Clostridium autoethanogenum protein (CAP) is a promising protein source but high dietary level of CAP was proved to reduce the growth performance and quality of aquatic animals. In order to evaluate the combination of hydroxyproline, taurine and cholesterol (HTC, with the proportion of 1:1:2) to overcome the disadvantage of CAP, six experimental diets ...

Comparison of single-molecule sequencing and hybrid approaches for finishing the genome of Clostridium autoethanogenum and analysis of CRISPR systems in industrial relevant Clostridia [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Clostridium autoethanogenum strain JA1-1 (DSM 10061) is an acetogen capable of fermenting CO, CO(2) and H(2) (e.g. from syngas or waste gases) into biofuel ethanol and commodity chemicals such as 2,3-butanediol.

Investigations of the Quorum Sensing Repressor LsrR from Escherichia coli and Salmonella Typhimurium and the Putative AI-2 Receptor LsrB from Clostridium antoethanogenum [PDF]
Quorum sensing is a process by which bacteria coordinate community behaviors through the exchange of signal molecules. Both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria use quorum sensing to regulate cell density-dependent activities such as bioluminescence,

Snapshots of acetyl-CoA synthesis, the final step of CO2 fixation in the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway [PDF]
In the ancient microbial Wood-Ljungdahl pathway, CO2 is fixed in a multi-step process ending with acetyl-CoA synthesis at the bifunctional carbon monoxide dehydrogenase/acetyl-CoA synthase complex (CODH/ACS).
