Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic engineering of Clostridium thermocellum for n -butanol production from cellulose

TL;DR: E engineering C. thermocellum to produce n-butanol by engineering the protein sequence of key enzymes in the pathway, which increased the n- butanol titer by 2.2-fold and increased n- Butanol production by adding ethanol to the growth media.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycolysis without pyruvate kinase in Clostridium thermocellum.

TL;DR: Deletion of the ppdk gene resulted in a redirection of all pyruvate flux through the malate shunt, providing the first direct evidence of the in-vivo function of the malates shunt.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the Clostridium thermocellum AdhE, NfnAB, ferredoxin and Pfor proteins for their ability to support high titer ethanol production in Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum

TL;DR: The thermophilic anaerobes Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum and Clostridium thermocellum are good candidates for lignocellulosic ethanol production and it is demonstrated that the reason for reduced ethanol production is that the Ct_pfor1 is inhibited by accumulation of ethanol and NADH, while Ts_p forA is not.
Journal ArticleDOI

The pentose phosphate pathway of cellulolytic clostridia relies on 6-phosphofructokinase instead of transaldolase

TL;DR: The results confirm the existence of an SBP pathway for pentose assimilation in cellulolytic clostridia and demonstrate that a second PFK of C. thermosuccinogenes that operates with ATP and GTP exhibits unusual kinetics toward F6P, as it appears to have an extremely high degree of cooperative binding, resulting in a virtual on/off switch for substrate concentrations near its K½ value.
