Thermoanaerobacter species differ in their potential to reduce organic acids to their corresponding alcohols

The reduction of organic acids to their corresponding alcohols has been shown for some bacterial species within the Firmicutes super-phylum and a genetically modified strain of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus . In the latter strain, an aldehyde:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (AOR) cata...
