Flavin-Based Electron Bifurcation, A New Mechanism of Biological Energy Coupling.

TL;DR: The crystal structures and electron transport of EtfAB-butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase and NfnAB are compared with those of complex III of the respiratory chain (cytochrome bc1), whereby unexpected common features have become apparent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acryloyl-CoA reductase from Clostridium propionicum. An enzyme complex of propionyl-CoA dehydrogenase and electron-transferring flavoprotein.

TL;DR: Acryloyl-CoA reductase from Clostridium propionicum has been characterized as a soluble enzyme, with kinetic properties perfectly adapted to the requirements of the organism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies on pseudomonas methanica (söhngen) nov. comb

TL;DR: Methods for isolation and study of methane-utilizing organisms require development and improvement, and a good illustration is provided by the paucity of information on the prototypic organism among the methane utilizers, Methanomonas methanica.
Journal ArticleDOI

Propionate CoA-transferase from Clostridium propionicum. Cloning of gene and identification of glutamate 324 at the active site.

TL;DR: Propionate CoA-transferase and similar proteins deduced from the genomes of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus halodurans and Aeropyrum pernix are proposed to form a novel subclass of CoA -transferases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Continuous syngas fermentation for the production of ethanol, n-propanol and n-butanol.

TL;DR: A 16S rRNA gene-based survey revealed a mixed culture in the fermentor dominated by A. bacchi strain CP15 (56%) and Clostridium propionicum (34%) that presents an opportunity for higher alcohols production from syngas.

Streptococcus allantoicus and the Fermentation of Allantoin.

TL;DR: A new type of energy-yielding anaerobic process, the fermentation of allantoin, is reported and the causative organism, Streptococcus allantoicus, which appears to be a new species.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of glutamic acid for the isolation and identification of Clostridium cochlearium and Cl. tetanomorphum

TL;DR: The ability to ferment glutamic acid appears to be of taxonimic value after a systematic study of seventeen strains of anaerobic spore-formers isolated from soil with the aid of enrichment cultures containing glutamic Acid as the main source of carbon and energy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amino Acid Fermentations by Anaerobic Bacteria

TL;DR: Recent work in this laboratory has resulted in the discovery of 2 additional obligately anærobic bacteria that derive energy by the fermentation of single amino acids that undoubtedly represent new species.
