Implementation of a Clostridium luticellarii genome-scale model for upgrading syngas fermentations.

The article discusses the implementation of a genome-scale model of Clostridium luticellarii for upgrading syngas fermentations. Syngas fermentation is a method to convert waste streams into carboxylic acid precursors for biochemicals, with Clostridia species like C. luticellarii showing promise in this process. The study creates a metabolic model of C. luticellarii, highlighting its potential for acetogenesis from syngas and chain elongation, with simulations suggesting it could enhance syngas fermenting platforms. The findings emphasize the need for experimental verification and further research to advance syngas fermentation using C. luticellarii. [Extracted from the article]
