Fig. 3From: Metabolic engineering of Clostridium thermocellum for n-butanol production from celluloseSpecific activities of the n-butanol pathway enzymes in Clostridium thermocellum. Cell-free extract was used for this experiment. The individual specific activities (μmol NADH oxidation/min/mg) were measured by the addition of acetyl-CoA for Thl, acetoacetyl-CoA for Hbd, 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA for Crt, crotonyl-CoA for Ter, butyryl-CoA for Bad and butyraldehyde for Bdh. Error represents one standard deviation, n = 3Back to article page
