The adhesion of Thermoanaerobacterium thermosaccharolyticum TG57 cells to cellulose particles — a fundamental stress adaption for such microorganisms — facilitates the efficient utilisation of cellulose for biobutanol production. The unique genome of the TG57 strain enables the bacterium to produce enzymes that enhances the synthesis of biobutanol.
