Tschaplinski +Clostridium autoethanogenum alters cofactor synthesis, redox metabolism, and lysine-acetylation in response to elevated H2:CO feedstock ratios for enhancing carbon capture efficiency
A study conducted by LanzaTech, published in Biotechnology for Biofuels, explores how Clostridium autoethanogenum (an acetogenic bacterium) adapts to various hydrogen ratios in its feedstock. The focus of this study is to enhance carbon capture efficiency with a spotlight on CO₂ conversion. This research unveils the metabolic adaptations of C. autoethanogenum and paves the way for innovative bioengineering strategies to maximize CO₂ conversion in industrial applications.
