Electron carriers involved in autotrophic and heterotrophic acetogenesis in the thermophilic bacterium Thermoanaerobacter kivui [PDF]
Extremophiles, 2021 AbstractThermoanaerobacter kivuiis an acetogenic model organism that reduces CO2with electrons derived from H2or CO, or from organic substrates in the Wood–Ljugdahl pathway (WLP). For the calculation of ATP yields, it is necessary to know the electron carriers involved in coupling of the oxidative and reductive parts of metabolism.

The monofunctional CO dehydrogenase CooS is essential for growth of Thermoanaerobacter kivui on carbon monoxide [PDF]
Extremophiles, 2021 AbstractThermoanaerobacter kivui is a thermophilic acetogen that can grow on carbon monoxide as sole carbon and energy source. To identify the gene(s) involved in CO oxidation, the genome sequence was analyzed. Two genes potentially encoding CO dehydrogenases were identified.

A Genetic System for the Thermophilic Acetogenic Bacterium Thermoanaerobacter kivui [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2018 ABSTRACT Thermoanaerobacter kivui is one of the very few thermophilic acetogenic microorganisms. It grows optimally at 66°C on sugars but also lithotrophically with H 2 + CO 2 or with CO, producing acetate as the major product.

CO Metabolism in the Thermophilic Acetogen Thermoanaerobacter kivui [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2016 ABSTRACT The thermophilic acetogenic bacterium Thermoanaerobacter kivui , previously described not to use carbon monoxide as a carbon and energy source, was adapted to grow on CO. This was achieved by using a preculture grown on H 2 plus CO 2 and by ...

Characterization of ferredoxins from the thermophilic, acetogenic bacterium Thermoanaerobacter kivui [PDF]
The FEBS Journal, Volume 290, Issue 16, Page 4107-4125, August 2023., 2023 Ferredoxins are key proteins in anaerobic metabolism. In early life forms such as the acetogenic bacteria, low potential ferredoxins serve to reduce carbon dioxide. Acetogens contain multiple genes each potentially encoding a different ferredoxin, but this and their function in metabolism remained elusive.

A purified energy-converting hydrogenase from Thermoanaerobacter kivui demonstrates coupled H+-translocation and reduction in vitro. [PDF]
J Biol Chem, 2022 Energy-converting hydrogenases (Ech) are ancient, membrane-bound enzymes that use reduced ferredoxin (Fd) as an electron donor to reduce protons to molecular H2. Experiments with whole cells, membranes and vesicle-fractions suggest that proton reduction is coupled to proton translocation across the cytoplasmatic membrane, but this has never been ...

Formate-driven H2 production by whole cells of Thermoanaerobacter kivui. [PDF]
Biotechnol Biofuels Bioprod, 2022 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.
