    Abstract:
    Phenolic compounds (PCs) generated during pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass severely hinder the biorefinery by Clostridia. As a hyperbutyrate-producing strain, Clostridium tyrobutyricum has excellent tolerance to PCs, but its tolerance mechanism is poorly understood. In this study, a comprehensive transcriptome analysis was applied to elucidate the response of C. tyrobutyricum to four typical PCs. The findings revealed that the expression levels of genes associated with PC reduction, HSPs, and membrane transport were significantly altered under PC stress. Due to PCs being reduced to low-toxicity alcohols/acids by C. tyrobutyricum, enhancing the reduction of PCs by overexpressing reductase genes could enhance the strain's tolerance to PCs. Under 1.0 g/L p-coumaric acid stress, compared with the wild-type strain, ATCC 25755/sdr1 exhibited a 31.2 % increase in butyrate production and a 38.5 % increase in productivity. These insights contribute to the construction of PC-tolerant Clostridia, which holds promise for improving biofuel and chemical production from lignocellulosic biomass.
