A Heterodimeric Reduced-Ferredoxin-Dependent Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase from Syngas-Fermenting Clostridium ljungdahlii

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021
The strict anaerobe Clostridium ljungdahlii can ferment CO or H2/CO2 via the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway to acetate, ethanol, and 2,3‐butanediol. This ability has attracted considerable interest, since it can be used for syngas fermentation to produce ...

Formate- and Sodium Ion-Dependent Wood-Ljungdahl Pathway Involved in Organo-, Litho-, and Methylotrophic Growth of Tepidanaerobacter acetatoxydans. [PDF]

Environ Sci Technol
Methane production by a biogas digester is a promising alternative to the use of fossil fuels as an energy source. One major substrate for methanogenesis is acetate, which is directly used by acetoclastic methanogens.

Reconstruction of the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway in Terrisporobacter.

, 2023
A: Genome-based reconstruction of the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway for the three type strains of the Terrisporobacter genus. Genome locus tags (black) of the catalyzing enzymes (red) and the required genes (blue) are shown for the three type strains of the ...

Analysis of the core genome and pan-genome of autotrophic acetogenic bacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Acetogens are obligate anaerobic bacteria capable of reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) to multicarbon compounds coupled to the oxidation of inorganic substrates, such as hydrogen (H2) or carbon monoxide (CO), via the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway.

Metabolic Potential for Reductive Acetogenesis and a Novel Energy-Converting [NiFe] Hydrogenase in Bathyarchaeia From Termite Guts – A Genome-Centric Analysis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Symbiotic digestion of lignocellulose in the hindgut of higher termites is mediated by a diverse assemblage of bacteria and archaea. During a large-scale metagenomic study, we reconstructed 15 metagenome-assembled genomes of Bathyarchaeia that represent ...

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.

“Candidatus Galacturonibacter soehngenii” Shows Acetogenic Catabolism of Galacturonic Acid but Lacks a Canonical Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenase/Acetyl-CoA Synthase Complex

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Acetogens have the ability to fixate carbon during fermentation by employing the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP), which is highly conserved across Bacteria and Archaea.

Formate Formation and Formate Conversion in Biological Fuels Production [PDF]

, 2011
Biomethanation is a mature technology for fuel production. Fourth generation biofuels research will focus on sequestering CO2 and providing carbon-neutral or carbon-negative strategies to cope with dwindling fossil fuel supplies and environmental impact.

Genomic and in-situ Transcriptomic Characterization of the Candidate Phylum NPL-UPL2 From Highly Alkaline Highly Reducing Serpentinized Groundwater

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Serpentinization is a process whereby water interacts with reduced mantle rock called peridotite to produce a new suite of minerals (e.g., serpentine), a highly alkaline fluid, and hydrogen. In previous reports, we identified abundance of microbes of the
