Long-term aim of our project is the construction of a biomolecular device for hydrogen production in combination with light-driven water-splitting as it occurs in the natural process of photosynthesis in plants. Such a semiartificial device should combine the best suited components found in various native systems which - up to now - cannot be found in an individual native system due to incompatibilities and/or different origin (pro- and eukaryotic, meso- and thermophilic, aerobic - anaerobic environment). Advantage of such a system is...

Catalases catalyze the conversion of hydrogen peroxide to dioxygen and water. Two families of catalases are known, one having a heme cofactor and the second a structurally distinct family, found in thermophilic and lactic acid bacteria. The manganese enzymes contain a binuclear active site and the functional form of the enzyme cycles between the (Mn )2 and the (Mn )2 oxidation states. When isolated, the enzyme is in a mixture of oxidation states including the Mn /Mn superoxidized state and this form of the enzyme has been extensively studied using XAS, UV-visible, EPR, and ESEEM spectroscopies. Multifrequency EPR and microwave polarization studies of the (Mn )2 catalytically active enzyme from L. plantarum have also been reported. ...

In this article, we present our findings on hydrogen production by the extreme thermophilic C. saccharolyticus using paper sludge hydrolysate in a controlled laboratory fermentor, which allowed accurate determinations of hydrogen yields and production rates.
