Obligate autotrophy at the thermodynamic limit of life in a new acetogenic bacterium
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 One of the important current issues of bioenergetics is the establishment of the thermodynamic limits of life. There is still no final understanding of what is the minimum value of the energy yield of a reaction that is sufficient to be used by an ...

Natural Competence in Thermoanaerobacter and Thermoanaerobacterium Species [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2010 ABSTRACT Low-G+C thermophilic obligate anaerobes in the class Clostridia are considered among the bacteria most resistant to genetic engineering due to the difficulty of introducing foreign DNA, thus limiting the ability to study and exploit their native hydrolytic and fermentative capabilities.

Systematic characterization of a novel gal operon in Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis [PDF]
Microbiology, 2009 On the basis of theThermoanaerobacter tengcongensisgenome, a novel type ofgaloperon was deduced. The gene expression and biochemical properties of this operon were further characterized. RT-PCR analysis of the intergenic regions suggested that the transcription of thegaloperon was continuous.

Biotransformation of organic acids to their corresponding alcohols by Thermoanaerobacter pseudoethanolicus [PDF]
Anaerobe, 2019 Higher order alcohols, such as 1-butanol and 1-hexanol, have a large number of applications but are currently prepared from non-renewable feedstocks. Here, the ability of Thermoanaerobacter pseudoethanolicus to reduce short-chain fatty acids to their corresponding alcohols using reducing potential generated by glucose catabolism with yields between 21 ...

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 16, 13 April 2026.Integrated structural analysis of N. vulgaris formate dehydrogenase AB, an enzyme with applications in climate change mitigation, is reported. The substrate/product diffusion pathways were fully mapped, and a retention site was identified that transiently holds substrates and has a key role in CO2‐reducing activity.
