Clostridium acetobutylicum has traditionally been used for production of acetone, butanol, and ethanol (ABE). Butanol is a commodity chemical due in part to its suitability as a biofuel; however, the current yield of this product from biological systems ...

Hydrogenases are microbial enzymes which catalyze uptake and production of H(2). Hydrogenases are classified into 10 classes based on the electron carrier specificity, or into 3 families, [NiFe]-family (including [NiFeSe]-subfamily), [FeFe]-family and [Fe]-family, based on the metal composition of the active site. H(2) is heterolytically cleaved on the

The [FeFe] hydrogenase of
Background The hydrogenosomes of the anaerobic ciliate Nyctotherus ovalis show how mitochondria can evolve into hydrogenosomes because they possess a mitochondrial genome and parts of an electron-transport chain on the one hand, and a hydrogenase on the ...

Role of the reversible electrochemical deprotonation of phosphate species in anaerobic biocorrosion of steels [PDF]
Sulphate reducing bacteria are known to play a major role in anaerobic microbiological influenced corrosion of steels, but mechanisms behind their influence are still source of debates as certain phenomena remain unexplained.

Contrasted Reactivity to Oxygen Tensions in Frankia sp. Strain CcI3 throughout Nitrogen Fixation and Assimilation [PDF]
Reconciling the irreconcilable is a primary struggle in aerobic nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Although nitrogenase is oxygen and reactive oxygen species-labile, oxygen tension is required to sustain respiration.

A nonmitochondrial hydrogen production in Naegleria gruberi [PDF]
Naegleria gruberi is a free-living heterotrophic aerobic amoeba well known for its ability to transform from an amoeba to a flagellate form. The genome of N.

Distribution analysis of hydrogenases in surface waters of marine and freshwater environments. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Surface waters of aquatic environments have been shown to both evolve and consume hydrogen and the ocean is estimated to be the principal natural source.

Exploration of H2 binding to the [NiFe]-hydrogenase active site with multiconfigurational density functional theory [PDF]
The combination of density functional theory (DFT) with a multiconfigurational wave function is an efficient way to include dynamical correlation in calculations with multiconfiguration self-consistent field wave functions.

The tetrameric cytoplasmic FeFe hydrogenase Hnd from Solidesulfovibrio fructosivorans (formely Desulfovibrio fructosovorans) catalyses H2 oxidation and couples the exergonic reduction of NAD+ to the endergonic reduction of a ferredoxin by using a flavin ...
