Molecular basis of the flavin-based electron-bifurcating caffeyl-CoA reductase reaction.
Julius K. Demmer,Johannes Bertsch,Christian Öppinger,Hannah Wohlers,Kanwal Kayastha,Ulrike Demmer,Ulrich Ermler,Volker Müller +7 more
TL;DR: Kinetic analysis of a CarCDE(∆Fd) complex indicates the bypassing of the ferredoxin‐like domain by artificial electron acceptors, and site‐directed mutagenesis studies substantiated the crucial role of the C‐terminal arm of CarD and of ArgE203, hydrogen‐bonded to the bifurcating FAD, for FBEB.

A metabolic model for targeted volatile fatty acids production by cofermentation of carbohydrates and proteins.
TL;DR: In this work a mathematical model was developed for the production of volatile fatty acids from organic wastes with a high concentration of carbohydrates and proteins and is envisioned as the core of an early-stage design tool for anaerobic cofermentation processes.

Proteiniphilum and Methanothrix harundinacea became dominant acetate utilizers in a methanogenic reactor operated under strong ammonia stress
TL;DR: In this paper , a mesophilic chemostat fed with acetate as the sole carbon source, gradually increased the total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) concentration from 1 g L−1 to 6 g l−1, and employed the 16S rRNA gene, metagenomics, and metatranscriptomics analysis to characterize the microbial community structure and metabolic behavior.

TL;DR: A role for NfnAB in metabolism and ethanol formation in Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum is demonstrated and this may be an important feature among other thermophilic ethanologenic anaerobes.

Methanogenic archaea: ecologically relevant differences in energy conservation.
TL;DR: In methanogens with cytochromes, the first and last steps in methanogenesis from CO2 are coupled chemiosmotically, whereas in methenogens without cyto Chromes, these steps are energetically coupled by a cytoplasmic enzyme complex that mediates flavin-based electron bifurcation.
