Mechanisms of Bacterial Extracellular Electron Exchange. [PDF]
, 2016 The biochemical mechanisms by which microbes interact with extracellular soluble metal ions and insoluble redox-active minerals have been the focus of intense research over the last three decades. The process presents two challenges to the microorganism;

Electrotransformation of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans with plasmids containing a mer determinant [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1992 The mer operon from a strain of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans (C. Inoue, K. Sugawara, and T. Kusano, Mol. Microbiol. 5:2707-2718, 1991) consists of the regulatory gene merR and an operator-promoter region followed by merC and merA structural genes and differs from other known gram-negative mer operons.

Mercuric reductase enzyme from a mercury-volatilizing strain of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1982 Cell-free mercury volatilization activity (mercuric reductase) was obtained from a mercury-volatilizing Thiobacillus ferrooxidans strain, and the properties of intact-cell and cell-free activities were compared with those determined by plasmid R100 in Escherichia coli. Intact cells of T.

Bioleaching of low grade uranium ore containing pyrite using A. ferrooxidans and A. thiooxidans [PDF]
, 2012 A process of uranium extraction from ore containing 3.1 % pyrite by bacterial leaching was investigated in shaken flasks during 90 days. The highest uranium recovery amounting to 85.1 % was obtained using binary mixture of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans ...

Glucose transport system in a facultative iron-oxidizing bacterium, Thiobacillus ferrooxidans [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1982 Properties of a heat-labile glucose transport system in Thiobacillus ferrooxidans strain AP-44 were investigated with iron-grown cells. [14C]glucose was incorporated into cell fractions, and the cells metabolized [14C]glucose to 14CO2. Amytal, rotenone, cyanide, azide, 2,4-dinitrophenol, and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide strongly inhibited [14C]glucose ...
