General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function under constant control of gas pressure and pH at 0.1 MPa and 6.0, respectively, ethanol is formed during the exponential phase, closely accompanied by biomass production. Then, ethanol is oxidized to acetate via the aldehyde ferredoxin oxidoreductase pathway in Clostridium ljungdahlii. AOR2, as well as AdhE1, are responsible for ethanol oxidation during the stationary phase. Inactivation of Aor2 blocks the oxidation pathway, resulting in a high ethanol concentration in end products Clostridium ljungdahlii
