A two-stage process for the autotrophic and mixotrophic conversion of C1 gases into bacterial cellulose

Unassisted stimulation of autotrophic ethanol bioproduction by visible light

“…[8][9][10] C. autoethanogenum modied with recombinant DNA technologies or co-cultivated was also shown to synthesize fatty acids, biopolymers, acetone, hexanol, and other alcohols. [11][12][13][14] Over the years, advanced systems have been described where acetogens gain the energy necessary for biological CO 2 reduction from different sources including reduced gases, organic carbons, and electrical current. [15][16][17][18] Recently, hybrid photosynthesis, coupling non-photosynthetic microbes with abiotic photosystems, was developed with the objective of reaching sunlight conversion efficiency and product specicity beyond the state-ofthe-art.…”
