Old Acetogens, New Light [PDF]
, 2008 Acetogens utilize the acetyl-CoA Wood-Ljungdahl pathway as a terminal electron-accepting, energy-conserving, CO2-fixing process. The decades of research to resolve the enzymology of this pathway (1) preceded studies demonstrating that acetogens not only ...

A novel hexameric NADP+‐reducing [FeFe] hydrogenase from Moorella thermoacetica
The FEBS Journal, Volume 291, Issue 3, Page 596-608, February 2024.The acetogenic model organism Moorella thermoacetica reduces CO2 with H2 as an electron donor via the Wood‐Ljungdahl pathway, which requires NADH, NADPH, and reduced ferredoxin as reductants. Whereas NADH and reduced ferredoxin are provided by a previously described electron‐bifurcating FeFe‐hydrogenase, the origin of NADPH remains unknown.

Deletion of nfnAB in Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum and Its Effect on Metabolism [PDF]
, 2015 NfnAB catalyzes the reversible transfer of electrons from reduced ferredoxin and NADH to 2 NADP+. The NfnAB complex has been hypothesized to be the main enzyme for ferredoxin oxidization in strains of Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum engineered for ...

Lignite coal burning seam in the remote Altai Mountains harbors a hydrogen-driven thermophilic microbial community [PDF]
, 2018 Thermal ecosystems associated with underground coal combustion sites are rare and less studied than geothermal features. Here we analysed microbial communities of near-surface ground layer and bituminous substance in an open quarry heated by subsurface ...

Insights into Ionizing-Radiation-Resistant Bacteria S-Layer Proteins and Nanobiotechnology for Bioremediation of Hazardous and Radioactive Waste [PDF]
, 2016 S-layers are crystalline arrays formed by proteinaceous subunits that cover the outer surface of many different kinds of microorganisms. This “proteinaceous cover” is particularly important in the case of ionizing-radiation-resistant bacteria (IRRB) that
