A genome-scale metabolic reconstruction for Escherichia coli K-12 MG1655 that accounts for 1260 ORFs and thermodynamic information.

TL;DR: An updated genome‐scale reconstruction of the metabolic network in Escherichia coli K‐12 MG1655 with increased scope and computational capability is presented, expected to broaden the spectrum of both basic biology and applied systems biology studies of E. coli metabolism.

Anaerobic fermentation of glycerol by Escherichia coli: A new platform for metabolic engineering

TL;DR: The finding that Escherichia coli can ferment glycerol in a pH-dependent manner should enable the development of an E. coli-based platform for the anaerobic production of reduced chemicals from Glycerol at yields higher than those obtained from common sugars, such as glucose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling methanogenesis with a genome-scale metabolic reconstruction of Methanosarcina barkeri

TL;DR: This work demonstrates that a reconstructed metabolic network can serve as an analysis platform to predict cellular phenotypes, characterize methanogenic growth, improve the genome annotation and further uncover the metabolic characteristics of methanogenesis.

Metabolic pathway engineering for enhanced biohydrogen production

TL;DR: This review summarizes some of the main biological pathways that produce hydrogen and their limiting factors and describes how metabolic engineering strategies are being used to overcome these limitations, increase yields, and broaden substrate utilization.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new model for the anaerobic fermentation of glycerol in enteric bacteria: trunk and auxiliary pathways in Escherichia coli.

TL;DR: A new model for glycerol fermentation in enteric bacteria is proposed in which the production of 1,2-PDO provides a means to consume reducing equivalents generated in the synthesis of cell mass, thus facilitating redox balance, and the conversion of Glycerol to ethanol, through a redox-balanced pathway, fulfills energy requirements by generating ATP via substrate-level phosphorylation.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent

TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Classification and phylogeny of hydrogenases.

TL;DR: Compelling evidence from sequences and structures indicates that the [NiFe]- and [Fe]-H2ases are phylogenetically distinct classes of proteins, which would be consistent with the phylogenetic distinctiveness of the two classes of H2ases.

Nucleotide sequence and expression of the selenocysteine-containing polypeptide of formate dehydrogenase (formate-hydrogen-lyase-linked) from Escherichia coli

TL;DR: The results are consistent with a co-translational selenocysteine incorporation mechanism.

The respiratory complex I of bacteria, archaea and eukarya and its module common with membrane-bound multisubunit hydrogenases.

TL;DR: The proton‐pumping NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, also called complex I, is the first of the respiratory complexes providing the proton motive force which is essential for energy consuming processes like the synthesis of ATP.
