Impact of iron reduction on the metabolism of Clostridium acetobutylicum

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Karin Lederballe Meibom, Zhaleh Hosseini, Cornelia List

Iron is essential for most living organisms. In addition, its biogeochemical cycling influences important processes in the geosphere (e.g., the mobilization or immobilization of trace elements and contaminants). The reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) can be ca ...

Mechanism(s) of electron transfer and metabolic changes during iron reduction by Clostridium acetobutylicum

Cornelia List

Microorganisms catalyze many of the redox transformations driving the iron cycle in the geosphere. For instance, iron cycling includes the reduction of solid-phase and soluble ferric iron (Fe(III)) to ferrous iron (Fe(II)). However, in order to reduce soli ...

Diving into the dynamics of product evolution : analyzing technological discontinuities during the era of incremental change and cognitive convergence on a dominant design

Olivier Waeber

Three distinct stages describe the technological evolution of a product over time: ferment, convergence on a dominant design and an era of incremental change. Until recently, the era of incremental change has been characterized as stable and one that invol ...
