Glycerol Utilization as a Sole Carbon Source Disrupts the Membrane Architecture and Solventogenesis in <i>Clostridium beijerinckii</i> NCIMB 8052

Glycerol Utilization as a Sole Carbon Source Disrupts the Membrane Architecture and Solventogenesis in <i>Clostridium beijerinckii</i> NCIMB 8052

Efficient bioconversion of abundant waste glycerol to value-added chemicals calls for a wider range of fermentative workhorses that can catabolize glycerol. In this study, we used quantitative gene expression and solvent profiling, qualitative metabolite analysis, and enzyme activity assays to inves...
