Simultaneous expression of an endogenous spermidine synthase and a butanol dehydrogenase from Thermoanaerobacter pseudethanolicus in Clostridium thermocellum results in increased resistance to acetic acid and furans, increased ethanol production and an increase in thermotolerance
Abstract Background Sensitivity to inhibitors derived from the pretreatment of plant biomass is a barrier to the consolidated bioprocessing of these complex substrates to fuels and chemicals by microbes. Spermidine is a low molecular weight aliphatic nitrogen compound ubiquitous in microorganisms, p...
