The carbonic anhydrase of Clostridium autoethanogenum represents a new subclass of β-carbonic anhydrases (2019)
Journal Article
Pander, B., Harris, G., Scott, D. J., Winzer, K., Köpke, M., Simpson, S. D., …Henstra, A. M. (2019). The carbonic anhydrase of Clostridium autoethanogenum represents a new subclass of β-carbonic anhydrases. Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 103(17), 7275-7286. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00253-019-10015-w

Carbonic anhydrase catalyses the interconversion of carbon dioxide and water to bicarbonate and protons. It was unknown if the industrial relevant acetogen Clostridium autoethanogenum possesses these enzymes. We identified two putative carbonic anhyd...

Homologous overexpression of hydrogenase and glycerol dehydrogenase in Clostridium pasteurianum to enhance hydrogen production from crude glycerol (2019)
Journal Article
Sarma, S., Ortega, D., Minton, N. P., Dubey, V. K., & Moholkar, V. S. (2019). Homologous overexpression of hydrogenase and glycerol dehydrogenase in Clostridium pasteurianum to enhance hydrogen production from crude glycerol. Bioresource Technology, 284, 168-177. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biortech.2019.03.074

This study reports engineering of a hypertransformable variant of C. pasteurianum for bioconversion of glycerol into hydrogen (H2). A functional glycerol-triggered hydrogen pathway was engineered based on two approaches: (1) increasing product yield...

CRISPR-Cas9D10A nickase-assisted base editing in the solvent producer Clostridium beijerinckii (2019)
Journal Article
Li, Q., Seys, F. M., Minton, N. P., Yang, J., Jiang, Y., Jiang, W., & Yang, S. (2019). CRISPR-Cas9D10A nickase-assisted base editing in the solvent producer Clostridium beijerinckii. Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 116(6), 1475-1483. https://doi.org/10.1002/bit.26949

Clostridium beijerinckii is a potentially important industrial microorganism as it can synthesize valuable chemicals and fuels from various carbon sources. The establishment of convenient to use, effective gene tools with which the organism can be ra...
