| Abstract: | This review presents applicability of
carboxydotrophic bacterial carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) in carbon
sequestration and bioenergy generation. CODH catalyzes reversible conversion of
CO2 to CO. These bacteria use CO and CO2 as source of energy and carbon for growth, and
therefore, play a vital role in maintaining very low CO level in the
environment. The enzyme finds application in detection and mitigation of CO
levels, and also to produce bioenergy from CO2. |
