Developing a Cell-Free Extract Reaction (CFER) System in Clostridium thermocellum to Identify Metabolic Limitations to Ethanol Production
The cellulolytic bacterium Clostridium thermocellum is a promising candidate for lignocellulosic biofuel production; however, ethanol titer needs to be improved for commercialization. To understand the factors limiting ethanol titer in C. thermocellum, we developed a cell-free extract reaction (CFER...
