The Wood–Ljungdahl pathway as a key component of metabolic versatility in candidate phylum Bipolaricaulota (Acetothermia, OP1)

Abstract: Summary The Wood–Ljungdahl (WL) pathway is an important component of the metabolic machinery in multiple anaerobic prokaryotes, including numerous yet‐uncultured bacterial phyla. The pathway can operate in the reductive and oxidative directions, enabling a wide range of metabolic processes. Here, we present a detailed analysis of 14 newly acquired, previously analysed, and publicly available genomic assemblies belonging to the candidate phylum Bipolaricaulota (candidate division OP1, and candidatus Acetothermi… Show more

“…Alternatively, or concomitantly, a proton-motive force could possibly be generated during the operation of Wood Ljungdahl (WL) pathway, encoded by all Class “Anaeroferrophillalia” genomes, in the homoacetogenic direction. In that case, a membrane-­-bound mechanism that achieves redox balance between heterotrophic substrate oxidation and the WL function as the electron sink (54, 55) is needed. Candidates for this membrane-bound electron bifurcation mechanism are the membrane-­-bound [Ni Fe] hydrogenase (Mbh) (HydDB group 4d), which couples reduced ferredoxin (produced via the action of pyruvate ferredoxin oxidoreductase [EC: 1.2.7.1]) oxidation to the reduction of protons to H 2 , with the concomitant export of protons to the periplasm (54, 55).…”

Recycling of electron carriers would further be achieved by the cytoplasmic [NiFe]-­-hydrogenase (MvhAGD) plus the heterodisulfide reductase HdrABC, both of which encoded in the genomes (HydDB group [Ni Fe] 3c) (Figure 2A).…”

“…When operating in the oxidative direction, the pathway is used for acetate catabolism (81)(82)(83). Syntrophic acetate oxidizers employing the oxidative WLP usually possess high affinity acetate transporters to allow for the uptake of small concentrations of acetate, a competitive advantage in the presence of acetoclastic methanogens (84). The absence of genes encoding high affinity acetate transporters in any of the genomes argues against the involvement of WLP in syntrophic acetate catabolism.…”
