Revealing formate production from carbon monoxide in wild type and mutants of Rnf‐ and Ech‐containing acetogens, Acetobacterium woodii and Thermoanaerobacter kivui [PDF]
Summary Acetogenic bacteria have gained much attraction in recent years as they can produce different biofuels and biochemicals from H2 plus CO2 or even CO alone, therefore opening a promising alternative route for the production of biofuels from ...

The energy-converting hydrogenase Ech2 is important for the growth of the thermophilic acetogen Thermoanaerobacter kivui on ferredoxin-dependent substrates [PDF]
Thermoanaerobacter kivui is the thermophilic acetogenic bacterium with the highest temperature optimum (66°C) and with high growth rates on hydrogen (H2) plus carbon dioxide (CO2).

Comparative analysis of carbon monoxide tolerance among Thermoanaerobacter species [PDF]
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 Versatile Aldehyde: Ferredoxin Oxidoreductase from the Organic Acid Reducing Thermoanaerobacter sp. Strain X514. [PDF]
Aldehyde:ferredoxin oxidoreductases (AORs) have been isolated and biochemically-characterized from a handful of anaerobic or facultative aerobic archaea and bacteria. They catalyze the ferredoxin (Fd)-dependent oxidation of aldehydes to acids.

Formate Is Required for Growth of the Thermophilic Acetogenic Bacterium Thermoanaerobacter kivui Lacking Hydrogen-Dependent Carbon Dioxide Reductase (HDCR) [PDF]
The hydrogen-dependent carbon dioxide reductase is a soluble enzyme complex that directly utilizes hydrogen (H2) for the reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to formate in the first step of the acetyl-coenzyme A- or Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP).

Sequencing of a <i>Thermoanaerobacter kivui</i> isolate from DSMZ stock: major differences with reference assembly. [PDF]
Thermoanaerobacter kivui DSM 2030 is an industrially relevant microbe, whose genome has been available since 2014. As the stock obtained from DSMZ appeared to be multiclonal, we obtained a complete genome sequence by de novo assembly of an isolate from ...

Draft genome sequence of rhamnolipid-producing bacteria Thermoanaerobacter thermocopriae strain CM-CNRG TB177 isolated from an oil reservoir in Mexico. [PDF]
The draft genome of Thermoanaerobacter thermocopriae CM-CNRG TB177 isolated from an oil reservoir in Mexico was determined and annotated. The organism is a thermophilic and strict anaerobe bacterium that produces rhamnolipids, using glucose as a carbon ...
