The genome of Clostridium kluyveri , a strict anaerobe with unique metabolic features [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
Clostridium kluyveri is unique among the clostridia; it grows anaerobically on ethanol and acetate as sole energy sources. Fermentation products are butyrate, caproate, and H 2 . We report here the genome sequence of C.

Chain Elongation by Clostridium Kluyveri: Effect of Substrates [PDF]

Chemical Engineering Transactions
The microbial conversion of C1 gas produced by the gasification of C-based streams (e.g., biomass and plastic) is a promising strategy for the production of bioalcohols and biocommodities.

Co-Immobilization of Clostridium carboxidivorans and Clostridium kluyveri in a Synthetic Dual-Layer Biofilm for Syngas Conversion

Applied Sciences
Syngas fermentation in combination with chain elongation offers great promise for sustainable medium-chain fatty acid production. While immobilization has proven effective for stabilizing monocultures of C.

Electro-Enhanced Gas Fermentation for Bioproduction of Volatile Fatty Acids and Alcohols [PDF]

Microorganisms
This study investigates sub-stoichiometric electron supply, also termed electro-fermentation, to influence product formation in gas fermentation. Two species, Clostridium carboxidivorans and Alkalibaculum bacchi, as well as a co-culture of A.

Development of novel microbial synthetic consortia for the production of antimicrobial fermentates containing caproate [PDF]

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology
Short- and medium chain carboxylic acids (SCCA/MCCA) are natural antimicrobials produced by fermentation and chain elongation, but currently only a few SCCA/MCCA are used in food-related applications.

Diverse mechanisms of translation arrest by a Clostridia ribosome stalling peptide CliM [PDF]

Nature Communications
Ribosome arrest peptides undergo programmed translational stalling in response to changes in the cellular environment to feedback-regulate gene expression.

Variability in n-caprylate and n-caproate producing microbiomes in reactors with in-line product extraction [PDF]

mSystems
Medium-chain carboxylates (MCCs) are used in various industrial applications. These chemicals are typically extracted from palm oil, which is deemed not sustainable. Recent research has focused on microbial chain elongation using reactors to produce MCCs,

The Energy Metabolism of Clostridium kluyveri [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1968
The energy metabolism of Clostridium kluyveri has been reinvestigated. The organism was grown on ethanol, acetate and bicarbonate or, on crotonate and bicarbonate as the sole carbon sources. The net ATP gain (G) — moles of ATP produced per mole of substrate fermented or product formed — was determined.

Production of biofuels from C1‐gases with Clostridium and related bacteria—Recent advances

Microbial Biotechnology, 2023
Clostridium spp. are suitable for the bioconversion of C1‐gases (e.g., CO2, CO and syngas) into different bioproducts. These products can be used as biofuels and are reviewed here, focusing on ethanol, butanol and hexanol, mainly.
