Characterization of a trithionate reductase system from Desulfovibrio vulgaris [PDF]
A trithionate reductase system was isolated and purified from extracts of Desulfovibrio vulgaris. This system reduced trithionate to thiosulfate and consisted of two proteins. One was bisulfite reductase, an enzyme that reduces bisulfite to trithionate, and the second component was designated TR-1.

This abiotic study elucidates the chemical and electrochemical anode processes within an unconventional, sulfide storing microbial fuel cell, as proposed by Habermann and Pommer in 1991. It analyzes the role of cobalt oxide species in the sulfide storage and oxidation, serving as a foundation of a future utilization of this microbial fuel cell concept.

Abstract Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is acknowledged as a significant type of corrosion due to its extensive impact on metal/alloy surfaces. As MIC accounts for 20% of all corrosion instances, it is a critical factor causing service failure of engineering materials such as steel and aluminium alloy.

Expanded diversity of microbial groups capable of anaerobic pyrite reduction. Devon Payne and Eric Boyd. Different microbial guilds were tested for their ability to reductively dissolve pyrite and mobilize iron and sulfur to support growth. Metabolic guilds capable of pyrite reduction were determined (top) and mechanisms of extracellular electron ...

Five selected carbazole derivatives, namely carbazole, 3,6-dibromocarbazole, 2-hydroxycarbazole, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazole and 9-(2-ethylhexyl)carbazole-3,6-dicarboxaldehyde were investigated for their inhibitive effects on Desulfovibrio vulgaris (D ...

The Study of Microbial Physiology Under Microoxic Conditions Is Critical but Neglected
Microbial physiology is mainly studied under aerobic or anaerobic/anoxic conditions, neglecting microbial behaviours in diverse microoxic conditions. The current article revisits the definition of microoxia in light of recent developments in oxygen‐sensing technology and emphasises the need to understand microbial physiology and growth behaviours of ...

A rubrerythrin operon and nigerythrin gene in Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough) [PDF]
Rubrerythrin is a nonheme iron protein of unknown function isolated from Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough). We have sequenced a 3.3-kbp Sal1 fragment of D. vulgaris chromosomal DNA containing the rubrerythrin gene, rbr, identified additional open reading frames (ORFs) adjacent to rbr, and shown that these ORFs are part of a transcriptional unit ...

Molybdenum‐dependent formate dehydrogenases (Mo‐FDHs) contain a strictly conserved lysine residue (K44) in the vicinity of an electron‐transferring [4Fe‐4S] cluster and a catalytically active molybdenum atom coordinated by two molybdopterins (MPT‐1 and MPT‐2).
