Journal Article
Zhang, L., Bryan, S. J., & Selão, T. T. (2022). Sustainable citric acid production from CO2 in an engineered cyanobacterium. Frontiers in Microbiology, 13, Article 973244. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2022.973244

Citric acid is one of the most widely used organic acids in the world, with applications ranging from acidity regulation in food and beverages to metal chelation in hydrometallurgical processes. Most of its production is currently derived from fermen... Read More about Sustainable citric acid production from CO2 in an engineered cyanobacterium.

Evidence for Electron Transfer from the Bidirectional Hydrogenase to the Photosynthetic Complex I (NDH-1) in the Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (2022)
Journal Article
Appel, J., Craig, S., Theune, M., Hüren, V., Künzel, S., Forberich, B., …Gutekunst, K. (2022). Evidence for Electron Transfer from the Bidirectional Hydrogenase to the Photosynthetic Complex I (NDH-1) in the Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Microorganisms, 10(8), Article 1617. https://doi.org/10.3390/microorganisms10081617

The cyanobacterial bidirectional [NiFe]-hydrogenase is a pentameric enzyme. Apart from the small and large hydrogenase subunits (HoxYH) it contains a diaphorase module (HoxEFU) that interacts with NAD(P)+ and ferredoxin. HoxEFU shows strong similarit...
