Four families of folate-independent methionine synthases.

PLoS Genetics, 2021
Although most organisms synthesize methionine from homocysteine and methyl folates, some have "core" methionine synthases that lack folate-binding domains and use other methyl donors.

A functional Wood-Ljungdahl pathway devoid of a formate dehydrogenase in the gut acetogens Blautia wexlerae, Blautia luti and beyond.

Environmental Microbiology, 2022
Species of the genus Blautia are typical inhabitants of the human gut and considered as beneficial gut microbes. However, their role in the gut microbiome and their metabolic features are poorly understood. Blautia schinkii was described as an acetogenic

Cell-free prototyping enables implementation of optimized reverse β-oxidation pathways in heterotrophic and autotrophic bacteria

Nature Communications, 2022
An attractive route for carbon-negative synthesis of biochemical products is the reverse β-oxidation pathway coupled to the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway.

Syntrophic Acetate-Oxidizing Microbial Consortia Enriched from Full-Scale Mesophilic Food Waste Anaerobic Digesters Showing High Biodiversity and Functional Redundancy

mSystems, 2022
Syntrophic acetate oxidation (SAO) coupled with hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis (HM) plays a vital role in the anaerobic digestion of protein-rich feedstocks such as food wastes. However, current knowledge of the biodiversity and genetic potential of the

Ancient Metabolisms of a Thermophilic Subseafloor Bacterium

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The ancient origins of metabolism may be rooted deep in oceanic crust, and these early metabolisms may have persisted in the habitable thermal anoxic aquifer where conditions remain similar to those when they first appeared.

An ancient pathway combining carbon dioxide fixation with the generation and utilization of a sodium ion gradient for ATP synthesis [PDF]

, 2012
Synthesis of acetate from carbon dioxide and molecular hydrogen is considered to be the first carbon assimilation pathway on earth. It combines carbon dioxide fixation into acetyl-CoA with the production of ATP via an energized cell membrane.

Defining Genomic and Predicted Metabolic Features of the Acetobacterium Genus

mSystems, 2020
Acetogens are anaerobic bacteria capable of fixing CO2 or CO to produce acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) and ultimately acetate using the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP).

Moorella thermoacetica: A promising cytochrome- and quinone-containing acetogenic bacterium as platform for a CO2-based bioeconomy

Green Carbon, 2023
The negative effect of fossil-based industrial processes on the environment, especially the contribution to global warming by emitting greenhouse gases such as CO2 causes a global threat to mankind. Therefore, technologies are demanded by the society for

Atypical one-carbon metabolism of an acetogenic and hydrogenogenic Moorella thermoacetica strain [PDF]

, 2015
A thermophilic spore-forming bacterium (strain AMP) was isolated from a thermophilic methanogenic bioreactor that was fed with cobalt-deprived synthetic medium containing methanol as substrate.
