A thermophile under pressure: Transcriptional analysis of the response of Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus to different H-2 partial pressures

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HYDROGEN ENERGY, 38(4), 1837–1849.

By: A. Bielen*, M. Verhaart*, A. VanFossen n, S. Blumer-Schuette n, A. Stams *, J. Oost *, R. Kelly n , S. Kengen *

author keywords: Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus; Hydrogen partial pressure; Chemostat; Metabolic shift; Gene expression; Rex transcriptional regulator
TL;DR: Transmission data provide evidence for the involvement of the redox sensing Rex protein in gene regulation under high P H 2 cultivation conditions and differential transcription was observed for genes involved in carbon metabolism, fatty acid biosynthesis and several transport systems.
