摘要：

Biological conversion of synthesis gas, primarily a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen gases, is a potential alternative to chemical processing for production of fuels and chemicals. In addition to acetate and butyrate as metabolic end products, Butyribacterium methylotrophicum has now exhibited n-butanol production directly from CO gas. A butanol concentration as high as 2.7 g/l has been achieved using the CO strain of this organism. These findings suggest the existence of a unique metabolic pathway for butanol production from CO in this strain.
