The Complete Genome Sequence of <named-content content-type="genus-species">Clostridium aceticum</named-content>: a Missing Link between Rnf- and Cytochrome-Containing Autotrophic Acetogens

ABSTRACT Clostridium aceticum was the first isolated autotrophic acetogen, converting CO2 plus H2 or syngas to acetate. Its genome has now been completely sequenced and consists of a 4.2-Mbp chromosome and a small circular plasmid of 5.7 kbp. Sequence analysis revealed major differences from other a...
