Cellodextrin and Laminaribiose ABC Transporters in Clostridium thermocellum [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2009
ABSTRACT Clostridium thermocellum is an anaerobic thermophilic bacterium that grows efficiently on cellulosic biomass. This bacterium produces and secretes a highly active multienzyme complex, the cellulosome, that mediates the cell attachment to and hydrolysis of the crystalline cellulosic substrate.

Comparison of transcriptional profiles of Clostridium thermocellum grown on cellobiose and pretreated yellow poplar using RNA-Seq

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The anaerobic, thermophilic bacterium, Clostridium thermocellum, secretes multi-protein enzyme complexes, termed cellulosomes, which synergistically interact with the microbial cell surface and efficiently disassemble plant cell wall biomass.

Training bias and sequence alignments shape protein–peptide docking by AlphaFold and related methods

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Protein‐peptide interactions mediate many biological processes. Accurate structural models of protein‐peptide complexes, determined by experiment or computational prediction, are essential for understanding function and designing interaction inhibitors.

Biological Routes for Biohydrogen Production: A Clean and Carbon‐Free Fuel

Biotechnology Journal, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2025.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Biological routes for hydrogen (H2) production are mainly classified into four pathways: 1) direct bio‐photolysis, 2) indirect bio‐photolysis, 3) photo‐fermentation, and 4) dark fermentation. Of these pathways, dark fermentation produces the highest levels of H2 production.

Enhanced ethanol formation by Clostridium thermocellum via pyruvate decarboxylase

Microbial Cell Factories, 2017
Background Pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) is a well-known pathway for ethanol production, but has not been demonstrated for high titer ethanol production at temperatures above 50 °C. Result Here we examined the thermostability of eight PDCs.

Grape Stalks Valorization towards Circular Economy: A Cascade Biorefinery Strategy

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 10, May 19, 2025.
A cascade protocol for grape stalks valorization has been proposed, characterized by a multidisciplinary strategy using unconventional techniques and subcritical water as a green solvent, where physical/chemical treatments synergistically interact with biological treatments to obtain added value products from all the biomass components.

Cell wall proteome of Clostridium thermocellum and detection of glycoproteins

Microbiological Research, 2012
Clostridium thermocellum, a thermophilic anaerobe, has the unusual capacity to convert cellulosic biomass into ethanol and hydrogen. In this work, the cell wall proteome of C. thermocellum was investigated. The proteins in the cell wall fraction of C. thermocellum prepared by the boiling SDS method were released by mutanolysin digestion and resolved on
