This study shows that H2 solubility limits C. ljungdahlii growth on CO2 and H2, but high H2 mass transfer enables rapid growth using CO2 as the sole carbon source.

This paper shows that engineering nitrogen exchange in a mixotrophic coculture of Clostridium acetobutylicum and Clostridium ljungdahlii enables mutualism, stabilizes population ratios, and improves product yields.

This study enhances isopropanol and butanol production by engineering microbial syntrophic cocultures of Clostridium acetobutylicum and Clostridium ljungdahlii, achieving high yields and efficiency.

The paper uses RNA sequencing to compare gene expression in syntrophic cocultures of Clostridium acetobutylicum and Clostridium ljungdahlii to monocultures and separated cocultures, identifying genes involved in metabolism and cell fusion.
