LITERATURE
evolution
metabolism
anaerobic fermentative metabolism of glycerol. Proteome analysis as well as enzyme assays performed in cell-free extracts demonstrate that glycerol is degraded via glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, which is further metabolized through the lower part of glycolysis leading to formation of mainly ethanol and hydrogen
