Comparative Analysis of Carbon Monoxide Tolerance Among Thermoanaerobacter Species [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 An anaerobic thermophilic strain (strain PCO) was isolated from a syngas-converting enrichment culture. Syngas components cannot be used by strain PCO, but the new strain is very tolerant to carbon monoxide (pCO = 1.7x105 Pa, 100% CO).

A megatransposon drives the adaptation of Thermoanaerobacter kivui to carbon monoxide [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsAcetogens are promising industrial biocatalysts for upgrading syngas, a gas mixture containing CO, H2 and CO2 into fuels and chemicals. However, CO severely inhibits growth of many acetogens, often requiring extensive adaptation to enable efficient CO ...

Metal cofactor-level chassis engineering enables aerobic expression of tungsten formate dehydrogenases in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsTungsten-dependent formate dehydrogenases are among the most active biological catalysts for carbon dioxide reduction, but their production is limited by complex metal cofactor requirements and poor compatibility with standard expression hosts.
