It has been suggested that Syntrophales (bacteria) be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since November 2024. |
The Syntrophales are an order of Thermodesulfobacteriota.[1] They are gram-negative bacteria.[1] Acetate is converted by syntrophales into acetyl-CoA, which can be used as a source of carbon and energy. Given that genes involved in fermentation were missing, this might then be channeled into gluconeogenesis.
