The frdABCD genes encode fumarate reductase, a key component of the native redox cofactor regeneration system in Escherichia coli; their deletion eliminates fumarate as a competing electron acceptor, thereby forcing redox balancing through the synthesis of reduced fermentation products such as butyrate [353].
