Physiological roles of pyruvate ferredoxin oxidoreductase and pyruvate formate-lyase in Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum JW/SL-YS485

Journal Article Zhou, Jilai ; Olson, Daniel G. ; Lanahan, Anthony A. ; ... - Biotechnology for Biofuels

We report that Thermoanaerobacter saccharolyticum is a thermophilic microorganism that has been engineered to produce ethanol at high titer (30–70 g/L) and greater than 90 % theoretical yield. However, few genes involved in pyruvate to ethanol production pathway have been unambiguously identified. In T. saccharolyticum, the products of six putative pfor gene clusters and one pfl gene may be responsible for the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA. To gain insights into the physiological roles of PFOR and PFL, we studied the effect of deletions of several genes thought to encode these activities.

Ferredoxin:NAD⁺ oxidoreductase of Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum and its role in ethanol formation [Identification of a ferredoxin:NAD⁺ oxidoreductase of Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum and its role in ethanol formation]

Journal Article Tian, Liang ; Lo, Jonathan ; Shao, Xiongjun ; ... - Applied and Environmental Microbiology

Ferredoxin:NAD⁺ oxidoreductase (NADH-FNOR) catalyzes the transfer of electrons from reduced ferredoxin to NAD⁺. This enzyme has been hypothesized to be the main enzyme responsible for ferredoxin oxidization in the NADH-based ethanol pathway in Thermoanaerobacterium saccharolyticum; however, the corresponding gene has not yet been identified. Here, we identified the Tsac_1705 protein as a candidate FNOR based on the homology of its functional domains. We then confirmed its activity in vitro with a ferredoxin-based FNOR assay. To determine its role in metabolism, the tsac_1705 gene was deleted in different strains of T. saccharolyticum. In wild-type T. saccharolyticum, deletion of tsac_1705 resulted inmore »« less
