  • Acetogen Communities in the Gut of Herbivores and Their Potential Role in Syngas Fermentation
    fermentation Article Acetogen Communities in the Gut of Herbivores and Their Potential Role in Syngas Fermentation Chunlei Yang Institute of Dairy Science, MoE Key Laboratory of Molecular Animal Nutrition, College of Animal Sciences, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310058, China; [email protected] Received: 2 May 2018; Accepted: 4 June 2018; Published: 7 June 2018 Abstract: To better understand the effects of host selection on gut acetogens and their potential role in syngas fermentation, the composition and hydrogenotrophic features of acetogen populations in cow and sheep rumens, rabbit ceca, and horse feces were studied. The acetogens detected in horses and rabbits were more phylogenetically diverse than those in cows and sheep, suggesting that the host species plays an important role in shaping gut acetogen populations. Acetogen enrichments from these animals presented good capacities to use hydrogen, with acetate as the major end product. Minor propionate, butyrate, and isovalerate were also produced. During 48 h of incubation, acetogen enrichments from horse consumed 4.75 moles of H2 to every 1 mole of acetate—significantly lower than rabbits, cows, and sheep (5.17, 5.53, and 5.23 moles, respectively) (p < 0.05)—and produced significantly more butyrate (p < 0.05). Enrichments from cows and sheep produced significantly higher amounts of propionate when compared to rabbits or horses (p < 0.05); enrichments from sheep produced the highest amounts of isovalerate (p < 0.05). These short chain fatty acids are important precursors for the synthesis of biofuel products, suggesting that gut contents of herbivores may be promising sources for harvesting functional acetogens for biofuel production.

Editor: Ivonne Nijenhuis ABSTRACT Fungal chloroperoxidases (CPOs) are one class of enzymes that produce natural organochlorides in soils. The microbial degradation of these organochlorides is not well known, though has implications for bioremediation, microbial ecology and natural chlorine and carbon cycling. In this study, Illumina-based 16S rRNA gene sequencing and real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) was used to characterize the bacterial community enriched from an amendment of organic matter reacted with CPO under conditions conducive towards chlorination (CPO-OM). In total, 17 bacterial groups were enriched in triplicate microcosms inoculated with creek sediment and amended with CPO-OM. These bacterial groups were neither enriched with amendments of non-reacted organic matter extract, with or without oxidative stress induced by H2O2, nor with amendments of organic matter reacted with CPO under non-chlorinating conditions. Of these, only two represented genera with known organohalide respiring bacteria—Dehalogenimonas and Dehalobacter.ThegenusAcetobacterium was also found to be enriched but the other 14 groups of enriched bacteria do not currently have any close phylogenetically related isolates.

Abstract Acetogens are anaerobic bacteria capable of fixing CO2 or CO to produce acetyl-CoA and ultimately acetate using the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP). This autotrophic metabolism plays a major role in the global carbon cycle.

Old Acetogens, New Light Harold L. Drake, Anita S. Gößner, & Steven L. Daniel Keywords: acetogenesis; acetogenic bacteria; acetyl-CoA pathway; autotrophy; bioenergetics; Clostridium aceticum; electron transport; intercycle coupling; Moorella thermoacetica; nitrate dissimilation Abstract: Acetogens utilize the acetyl-CoA Wood-Ljungdahl pathway as a terminal electron-accepting, energy-conserving, CO2-fixing process. The decades of research to resolve the enzymology of this pathway (1) preceded studies demonstrating that acetogens not only harbor a novel CO2-fixing pathway, but are also ecologically important, and (2) overshadowed the novel microbiological discoveries of acetogens and acetogenesis. The first acetogen to be isolated, Clostridium aceticum, was reported by Klaas Tammo Wieringa in 1936, but was subsequently lost. The second acetogen to be isolated, Clostridium thermoaceticum, was isolated by Francis Ephraim Fontaine and co-workers in 1942.
