Carbon monoxide dehydrogenase/acetyl coenzyme A synthase (CODH/ACS) describes two different classes of enzymes carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) isolated from Rhodospirillum rubrum or Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans reversibly oxidizes CO to CO2 according to equation (2), and the bifunctional CODH/ACS enzyme from Moorella thermoacetica catalyzes the reversible reduction of CO2 to CO (CODH) and acetyl coenzyme assembly/disassembly (ACS) (equation 3). ... 

C. therm, polymerase isolated from Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans is a magnesium-dependent enzyme with both reverse transcriptase and DNA polymerase activities. C. therm, polymerase has a short half-life at 95 °C and Taq polymerase can be added to the reaction to improve the amplification.
