The extremely thermophilic cellulolytic bacterium, Caldicellulosiruptor bescii , degrades plant biomass at high temperatures without any pretreatments and can serve as a strategic platform for industrial applications. The metabolic engineering of C. bescii , however, faces potential bottlenecks in bio-based chemical productions.
