Energy-Conserving Enzyme Systems Active During Syntrophic Acetate Oxidation in the Thermophilic Bacterium Thermacetogenium phaeum

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The thermophilic acetogen Thermacetogenium phaeum uses the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP) in both directions, either for the production of acetate from various compounds or for the oxidation of acetate in syntrophic cooperation with methanogens.

Cannabidiol and cannabigerol ameliorate steatotic liver disease via phosphocreatine buffering and lysosomal restoration

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) alleviate hepatic steatosis in obese mice by shifting energy buffering towards phosphocreatine and enhancing lysosomal lipid degradation and trafficking. These effects are associated with increased creatine kinase activity and lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA) levels, highlighting a previously unrecognised ...

Formate as electron carrier in the gut acetogen Blautia luti: a model for electron transfer in the gut microbiome

Gut Microbes
Species of the genus Blautia are commonly found in the human gut and are known to be beneficial for the human well-being. However, only little is known about the physiology and the specific role of Blautia species in the human gut.

Optimization of carbon and energy utilization through differential translational efficiency. [PDF]

, 2018
Control of translation is vital to all species. Here we employ a multi-omics approach to decipher condition-dependent translational regulation in the model acetogen Clostridium ljungdahlii.

Comparative analysis of metabolic and functional cardiac alterations in diet‐ and genetically induced mouse models of cardiac dysfunction

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Dietary and genetic stress trigger different routes to heart failure. In mice, a carbohydrate‐free high‐fat diet caused mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired energy production with preserved pumping function, while genetic obesity led to heart enlargement, fibrosis, and reduced function.

Metal-Containing Formate Dehydrogenases, a Personal View

Molecules, 2023
Mo/W-containing formate dehydrogenases (FDH) catalyzes the reversible oxidation of formate to carbon dioxide at their molybdenum or tungsten active sites. The metal-containing FDHs are members of the dimethylsulfoxide reductase family of mononuclear molybdenum cofactor (Moco)- or tungsten cofactor (Wco)-containing enzymes.

A new branch of mammalian vitamin B6 metabolism: AKR1C‐mediated conversion of pyridoxal to pyridoxine and 4‐pyridoxolactone

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pyridoxal 5′‐phosphate (PLP) homeostasis relies on salvage enzymes, yet key metabolic branches remain undefined. We identify AKR1C isozymes as previously undescribed contributors that convert pyridoxal into pyridoxine or 4‐pyridoxolactone through reductase and dehydrogenase activities.

Molecular Electrocatalyst Enables Direct Electrochemical Capture and Conversion of CO2 up to Atmospheric Concentration

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 10, 2 March 2026.
A molecular manganese electrocatalyst enables the direct electrochemical capture and conversion of dilute CO2 (1% – 0.2%) to CO with nearly unit Faradaic efficiency, achieving high efficiency even at atmospheric concentrations (420 ppm). By bypassing energy‐intensive pre‐concentration steps, this integrated approach highlights a sustainable pathway for

Synthetic C1 metabolism in Pseudomonas putida enables strict formatotrophy and methylotrophy via the reductive glycine pathway

mBio
Formate and methanol are promising alternatives to sugar-based feedstocks for biotechnological applications. These one-carbon (C1) substrates can be sustainably produced from CO2 and renewable electricity and assimilated by both native and engineered ...

Diffusion-controlled generation of a proton-motive force across a biomembrane [PDF]

, 2009
Respiration in bacteria involves a sequence of energetically-coupled electron and proton transfers creating an electrochemical gradient of protons (a proton-motive force) across the inner bacterial membrane. With a simple kinetic model we analyze a redox
