Abstract: The gram-positive bacterium Clostridium thermocellum contains a set of carbohydrate-active enzymes that can potentially be employed to generate high-value-added products from lignocellulose. In this study, the gene expression profiling of C. thermocellum B8 was provided during growth in the presence of sugarcane bagasse and straw as a carbon source in comparison to growth using microcrystalline cellulose. A total of 625 and 509 genes were up-regulated for growth in the presence of bagasse and straw, respectively. These genes were mainly grouped into carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), cell motility, chemotaxis, quorum sensing pathway and expression control of glycoside hydrolases. These results show that type of carbon source modulates the gene expression profiling of carbohydrate-active enzymes. In addition, highlight the importance of cell motility, attachment to the substrate and communication in deconstructing complex substrates. This present work may contribute to the development of enzymatic cocktails and industrial strains for biorefineries based on sugarcane residues as feedstock.
