degradation | direct conversion of switchgrass to ethanol without conventional pretreatment of the biomass is accomplished by deletion of lactate dehydrogenase and heterologous expression of a Clostridium thermocellum bifunctional acetaldehyde/alcohol dehydrogenase. Whereas wild-type Caldicellulosiruptor bescii lacks the ability to make ethanol, 70% of the fermentation products in the engineered strain are ethanol (12.8 mM ethanol directly from 2% wt/vol switchgrass) with decreased production of acetate by 38% compared with wild-type | Caldicellulosiruptor bescii |
