Syntrophic growth on formate: a new microbial niche in anoxic environments

, 2008
Anaerobic syntrophic associations of fermentative bacteria and methanogenic archaea operate at the thermodynamic limits of life. The interspecies transfer of electrons from formate or hydrogen as a substrate for the methanogens is key.

Growth- and substrate-dependent transcription of formate dehydrogenase and hydrogenase coding genes in Syntrophobacter fumaroxidans and Methanospirillum hungatei

, 2011
Transcription of genes coding for formate dehydrogenases (fdh genes) and hydrogenases (hyd genes) in Syntrophobacter fumaroxidans and Methanospirillum hungatei was studied following growth under different conditions.

Insights Into the Redox Sensitivity of Chloroflexi Hup-Hydrogenase Derived From Studies in Escherichia coli: Merits and Pitfalls of Heterologous [NiFe]-Hydrogenase Synthesis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The highly oxygen-sensitive hydrogen uptake (Hup) hydrogenase from Dehalococcoides mccartyi forms part of a protein-based respiratory chain coupling hydrogen oxidation with organohalide reduction on the outside of the cell.

New Insight Into the Interspecies Shift of Anammox Bacteria Ca. “Brocadia” and Ca. “Jettenia” in Reactors Fed With Formate and Folate

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The sensitivity of anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria to environmental fluctuations is a frequent cause of reactor malfunctions. It was hypothesized that the addition of formate and folate would have a stimulating effect on anammox bacteria,

Formate-Catalyzed Selective Reduction of Carbon Dioxide to Formate Products Using Hydrosilanes

, 2019
Formate salts were found to be active and selective homogeneous catalysts for the hydrosilylation of CO2. Counter cations and solvents strongly affected their catalytic activity.

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.
