Alternative Pathways of Acetogenic Ethanol and Methanol Degradation in the Thermophilic Anaerobe Thermacetogenium phaeum
Growth of the anaerobic thermophile Thermacetogenium phaeum with methanol, ethanol, ethanolamine, and acetate was investigated in axenic cultures and in syntrophic cultures with Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus. Microcompartment genes were identified in the T. phaeum genome, and presence of mi...
