Genes and pathways for CO2 fixation in the obligate, chemolithoautotrophic acidophile, Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, Carbon fixation in A. ferrooxidans [PDF]
BMC Microbiology, 2010 Background: Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is chemolithoautotrophic gamma-proteobacterium that thrives at extremely low pH (pH 1-2). Although a substantial amount of information is available regarding CO2 uptake and fixation in a variety of facultative ...

Characterize the Growth and Metabolism of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans under Electroautotrophic and Chemoautotrophic Conditions [PDF]
MicroorganismsAcidophiles are capable of surviving in extreme environments with low pH. Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is a typical acidophilic bacterium that has been extensively studied when grown chemoautotrophically, i.e., when it derives energy from oxidation of ...

A Lux-like Quorum Sensing System in the Extreme Acidophile Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]
Biological Research, 2005 The genome of the acidophilic, proteobacterium Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, contains linked but divergently oriented genes, termed afeI and afeR, whose predicted protein products are significantly similar to the LuxI and LuxR families of proteins.

A sensitive immunological method to enumerate Leptospirillum ferrooxidans in the presence of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1991 Abstract A specific and very sensitive dot-immunobinding assay was developed to detect and enumerate Leptospirillum ferrooxidans in the presence of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans , one of the most common iron-oxidizers accompanying L. ferrooxidans in mining environments.

Thiobacillus ferrooxidans, a facultative hydrogen oxidizer [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1990 The type strain (ATCC 23270) and two other strains of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans were able to grow by hydrogen oxidation, a feature not recognized before. When cultivated on H2, a hydrogenase was induced and the strains were less extremely acidophilic than during growth on sulfidic ores. Cells of T.

Isolation of the Thiobacillus ferrooxidans ntrBC genes using a T. ferrooxidans nifH-lacZ fusion [PDF]
Microbiology, 1994 An agar plating technique was developed in which the activation of expression of a Thiobacillus ferrooxidans nifH-lacZ gene fusion was used to isolate the ntrBC genes from a T. ferrooxidans gene library. An Escherichia coli ntrC mutant containing the nifH-lacZ fusion was transformed and plated on a low-nitrogen medium so that on flooding with ONPG, the
