Formate-driven H2 production by whole cells of Thermoanaerobacter kivui
Abstract Background In times of global warming there is an urgent need to replace fossil fuel-based energy vectors by less carbon dioxide (CO2)-emitting alternatives. One attractive option is the use of molecular hydrogen (H2) since its combustion emits water (H2O) and not CO2.

A new family of alpha,omega-dicarboxylic, very long chain fatty acids was isolated and characterized from the lipids of thermophilic anaerobic eubacterium, Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus 39E. After the isolation of the membrane, the fatty acyl components

The Thermoanaerobacter glycobiome reveals mechanisms of pentose and hexose co-utilization in bacteria. [PDF]
Thermoanaerobic bacteria are of interest in cellulosic-biofuel production, due to their simultaneous pentose and hexose utilization (co-utilization) and thermophilic nature. In this study, we experimentally reconstructed the structure and dynamics of the

Metabolic engineering of Clostridium thermocellum for n-butanol production from cellulose
Background Biofuel production from plant cell walls offers the potential for sustainable and economically attractive alternatives to petroleum-based products. In particular, Clostridium thermocellum is a promising host for consolidated bioprocessing (CBP)

During glucose and xylose fermentation, Thermoanaerobacter finnii was observed to produce lactate, acetate, H2 and CO2, with ethanol being the major end product. Thermoanaerobacter strain SEBR 5268, an isolate from an oil field, also produced a similar range of end products from glucose and xylose fermentation, with the exception that both ethanol and ...

Summary Ethanol is an important target for the renewable production of liquid transportation fuels. It can be produced biologically from pyruvate, via pyruvate decarboxylase, or from acetyl‐CoA, by alcohol dehydrogenase E (AdhE).

Ketoreductase from Pichia glucozyma (KRED1‐Pglu) has been successfully employed for the stereoselective bioreduction of α‐halogenated ketones using the purified protein, or alternatively a lyophilized whole cell preparation overexpressed in E. coli. Better chemoselectivities were found with pure biocatalyst, obtaining a series of chiral fluorohydrins ...

ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...
