Redirection of metabolism for biological hydrogen production.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 1 Mar 2007

Rey Federico E, Heiniger Erin K, Harwood Caroline S

Abstract excerpt

A major route for hydrogen production by purple photosynthetic bacteria is biological nitrogen fixation. Nitrogenases reduce atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia with the concomitant obligate production of molecular hydrogen. However, hydrogen production in the context of nitrogen fixation is a rather inefficient process because about 75% of the reductant consumed by the nitrogenase is used to generate ammonia. In...
