Enhanced ethanol formation by Clostridium thermocellum via pyruvate decarboxylase

Abstract Background Pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) is a well-known pathway for ethanol production, but has not been demonstrated for high titer ethanol production at temperatures above 50 °C. Result Here we examined the thermostability of eight PDCs. The purified bacterial enzymes retained 20% of acti...
