ABSTRACT
In the dark fermentation of hydrogen, development of production host is crucial as bacteria act on substrates and produce hydrogen. The present study aimed to improve hydrogen production through the development of Clostridium acetobutylicum as a superior biohydrogen producer. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), which produces NADH/NADPH for metabolites and energy in primary pathways, was introduced to enhance hydrogen production. The strain CAC824-G containing gapC that encodes GAPDH showed a 66.3 % higher hydrogen production than the wild-type strain, with increased NADH and NADPH pools. Glucose consumption and other byproducts, such as acetone, butanol, and ethanol, were also high in CAC824-G. Overexpression of gapC resulted in increased hydrogen production with sugars obtained from different biomass, even in the presence of inhibitors such as vanillin, 5-hydroxymethylfufural, acetic acid, and formic acid. Our results imply that overexpression of gapC in Clostridium is possible to expand the production of the reported biochemicals to produce hydrogen.
