Improvement of caproic acid production in a Clostridium kluyveri H068 and Methanogen 166 co-culture fermentation system [PDF]
AMB Express, 2018 The aim of this study was to develop a bioprocess capable of producing caproic acid using a binary fermentation system consisting of Clostridium kluyveri H068 and Methanogen 166 which could then be applied to the brewing of Chinese strong flavor liquor ...

Upgrading syngas fermentation effluent using Clostridium kluyveri in a continuous fermentation [PDF]
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017 Background The product of current syngas fermentation systems is an ethanol/acetic acid mixture and the goal is to maximize ethanol recovery. However, ethanol currently has a relatively low market value and its separation from the fermentation broth is ...

NADP + Reduction with Reduced Ferredoxin and NADP + Reduction with NADH Are Coupled via an Electron-Bifurcating Enzyme Complex in Clostridium kluyveri [PDF]
J Bacteriol, 2010 It was recently found that the cytoplasmic butyryl-coenzyme A (butyryl-CoA) dehydrogenase-EtfAB complex from Clostridium kluyveri couples the exergonic reduction of crotonyl-CoA to butyryl-CoA with NADH and the endergonic ...

Metabolic Flux and Growth Profiling of Megasphaera cerevisiae for Medium‐Chain Fatty Acid Synthesis [PDF]
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.Characterising the metabolism of medium‐chain fatty acids in Megasphaera cerevisiae, based on genome‐scale metabolic modelling and integration with experimental data obtained from controlled bioreactor cultivations. The iterative approach aligns in silico predictions with empirical observations and a refined model was obtained.

ω‐Hydroxyacid Dehydrogenases From Clostridium viride: Iron‐Containing Biocatalysts With Biotechnological Potential [PDF]
ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 16, 27 August 2026.ω‐Hydroxy and ω‐oxo acids are precursors to lactones, polyesters, and nylon‐6, yet selective interconverting enzymes remain scarce. Clostridium viride supplies two iron alcohol dehydrogenases: Cvir‐Hbd2, restricted to C4, and the genomic singleton Cvir‐Hvd, spanning C5–C12 substrates.

Species-specific ribosomal RNA-FISH identifies interspecies cellular-material exchange, active-cell population dynamics and cellular localization of translation machinery in clostridial cultures and co-cultures [PDF]
mSystemsThe development of synthetic microbial consortia in recent years has revealed that complex interspecies interactions, notably the exchange of cytoplasmic material, exist even among organisms that originate from different ecological niches.

Implementation of a Clostridium luticellarii genome-scale model for upgrading syngas fermentations [PDF]
Computational and Structural Biotechnology JournalSyngas fermentation is a powerful platform for converting waste streams into sustainable carboxylic acid precursors for value-added biochemicals. Steel mills produce significant syngas, yet industrial microbial syngas valorization remains unrealized. The
