This study isolates a novel thermophilic CO-utilising bacterium, describes its genomic potential for CO utilisation, and proposes a new genus and species.

This study shows Acididesulfobacillus acetoxydans adapts to AMD-like acidity through metabolic and membrane changes, supporting its use in bioremediation.

This study uses FT-IR micro-spectroscopy to analyze the spatial distribution of extracellular matrix components in biofilms, identifying polysaccharide and protein gradients and their correlations.

This study develops a genome-scale metabolic model for Anaerotignum neopropionicum to understand ethanol metabolism via the acrylate pathway and validate it with experimental data.

The paper identifies 187 new candidate species for 1,3-propanediol production using a function-based genome mining approach.

The paper develops a genome-scale metabolic model of a co-culture of Clostridium autoethanogenum and Clostridium kluyveri to optimize syngas conversion to medium-chain fatty acids.
