TL;DR: Pathway engineering to combine established substrate-utilization programs, such as for cellulose, CO2/H2 or CO, with desirable metabolic programs could lead to modular design of strains suitable for many applications.

TL;DR: This paper reviewed potential sources of single cell protein (SCP) strains and their respective production processes, highlight recent advances on identification of new SCP strains and feedstocks, and, finally, review new feeding trial data on important aquaculture species, specifically Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout, and whiteleg shrimp.

TL;DR: Findings demonstrate not only the robustness of the endospore sporulation program but also the plasticity of the program to generate different complex phenotypes, some apparently regulated at the epigenetic level.

TL;DR: It is shown that anaerobic, non-photosynthetic mixotrophy, defined as the concurrent utilization of organic and inorganic substrates in a single organism, can overcome constraints to increase product yields and reduce overall CO2 emissions.

TL;DR: This paper reviews one route to recapture evolved CO2 using the Wood-Ljungdahl carbon fixation pathway (WLP) in a process called anaerobic, non-photosynthetic (ANP) mixotrophic fermentation, and defines the bounds of ANP mixotrophy and calculates the potential metabolic advantages.
