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.

Functional Expression of the Clostridium ljungdahlii Acetyl-Coenzyme A Synthase in Clostridium acetobutylicum as Demonstrated by a Novel In Vivo CO Exchange Activity En Route to Heterologous Installation of a Functional Wood-Ljungdahl Pathway. [PDF]
Appl Environ Microbiol, 2018 ABSTRACTEngineering the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP) in the established industrial organismClostridium acetobutylicumwould allow for the conversion of carbohydrates into butanol, acetone, and other metabolites at higher yields than are currently possible, while minimizing CO2and H2release.

Methanol Metabolism in the Cytochrome and Menaquinone-Containing Acetogen Moorella thermoacetica. [PDF]
Environ MicrobiolThe thermophilic acetogenic bacterium Moorella thermoacetica is a promising platform organism to convert C1 compounds to valuable products. Gaseous C1 substrates are technically difficult to use for fermentation in an industrial scale, but methanol, which can be produced chemically from carbon dioxide, is a suitable alternative.

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).

Functional cooperation of the glycine synthase-reductase and Wood–Ljungdahl pathways for autotrophic growth of Clostridium drakei [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020 Among CO 2 -fixing metabolic pathways in nature, the linear Wood–Ljungdahl pathway (WLP) in phylogenetically diverse acetate-forming acetogens comprises the most energetically efficient pathway, requires the least number of reactions, and converts CO 2 ...

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.
