Exergy-based performance analysis of a continuous stirred bioreactor for ethanol and acetate fermentation from syngas via Wood–Ljungdahl pathway

Chemical Engineering Science, 2016
Abstract In this work, a thermodynamic framework was proposed to achieve improved process understanding of ethanol and acetate fermentation in a continuous stirred tank bioreactor from syngas through the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway. The bioreactor performance was evaluated using both conventional exergy and eco-exergy principles to identify the effect of ...

The Wood–Ljungdahl pathway as a key component of metabolic versatility in candidate phylum Bipolaricaulota (Acetothermia, OP1)

Environmental Microbiology Reports, 2019
Summary The Wood–Ljungdahl (WL) pathway is an important component of the metabolic machinery in multiple anaerobic prokaryotes, including numerous yet‐uncultured bacterial phyla. The pathway can operate in the reductive and oxidative directions, enabling a wide range of metabolic processes.

Microbial production of methyl-uranium via the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway

Science of The Total Environment
The misuse of uranium is a major threat to human health and the environment. In microbial ecosystems, microbes deploy various strategies to cope with uranium-induced stress. However, the exact ecological strategies and mechanisms underlying uranium tolerance in microbes remain unclear.

Rapid Kinetic Studies of Acetyl-CoA Synthesis:  Evidence Supporting the Catalytic Intermediacy of a Paramagnetic NiFeC Species in the Autotrophic Wood−Ljungdahl Pathway

Biochemistry, 2002
CO dehydrogenase/acetyl-CoA synthase (CODH/ACS), a key enzyme in the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway of anaerobic CO(2) fixation, is a bifunctional enzyme containing CODH, which catalyzes the reversible two-electron oxidation of CO to CO(2), and ACS, which catalyzes acetyl-CoA synthesis from CoA, CO, and a methylated corrinoid iron-sulfur protein (CFeSP).

Mechanism of Transfer of the Methyl Group from (6S)-Methyltetrahydrofolate to the Corrinoid/Iron−Sulfur Protein Catalyzed by the Methyltransferase from Clostridium thermoaceticum:  A Key Step in the Wood−Ljungdahl Pathway of Acetyl-CoA Synthesis

Biochemistry, 1999
The methyltetrahydrofolate:corrinoid/iron-sulfur protein methyltransferase (MeTr) from Clostridium thermoaceticum catalyzes transfer of the N5-methyl group from (6S)-methyltetrahydrofolate (CH3-H4folate) to the cobalt center of a corrinoid/iron-sulfur protein (CFeSP), forming methylcob(III)amide and H4folate.

Aromatase-independent estrogenesis: Wood-Ljungdahl pathway likely contributed to the emergence of estrogens in the biosphere

Abstract Androgen and estrogen, key sex hormones, were long thought to be exclusively produced by vertebrates. The O 2 -dependent aromatase that converts androgen to estrogen (estrogenesis) has never been identified in any prokaryotes.

Acetogenesis, Acetogenic Bacteria, and the Acetyl-CoA “Wood/Ljungdahl” Pathway: Past and Current Perspectives

1994
We will get to acetogens shortly. Before that, I must note that it was never my intent to deliver the introductory chapter for this book. That was Harland’s job, and as editor of this book, I was elated when he agreed to take on that project. I knew full well no one but he was up to that task.
