Our studies compared the impact of the gas mixtures CO 2 + H 2 , syngas and CO on the intracellular flux distribution, energy management, product formation and electron efficiency of C. ljungdahlii . The advantage of CO consumption for producing reduced products such as alcohols is pinpointed. In addition, we demonstrated that the Wood‐Ljungdahl pathway adapts its main function depending on the gas mixture consumed.
