Chain elongation in anaerobic reactor microbiomes to recover resources from waste [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Different microbial pathways can elongate the carbon chains of molecules in open cultures of microbial populations (i.e. reactor microbiomes) under anaerobic conditions. Here, we discuss three such pathways: 1.

Life in Hot Carbon Monoxide: The Complete Genome Sequence of Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans Z-2901 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report here the sequencing and analysis of the genome of the thermophilic bacterium Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans Z-2901. This species is a model for studies of hydrogenogens, which are diverse bacteria and archaea that grow anaerobically ...

Clostridium autoethanogenum alters cofactor synthesis, redox metabolism, and lysine-acetylation in response to elevated H2:CO feedstock ratios for enhancing carbon capture efficiency

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Background Clostridium autoethanogenum is an acetogenic bacterium that autotrophically converts carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) gases into bioproducts and fuels via the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway (WLP).

Uneven distribution of cobamide biosynthesis and dependence in bacteria predicted by comparative genomics. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The vitamin B12 family of cofactors known as cobamides are essential for a variety of microbial metabolisms. We used comparative genomics of 11,000 bacterial species to analyze the extent and distribution of cobamide production and use across bacteria ...
