Extending the models for iron and sulfur oxidation in the extreme Acidophile Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans

BACKGROUND: Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans gains energy from the oxidation of ferrous iron and various reduced inorganic sulfur compounds at very acidic pH. Although an initial model for the electron pathways involved in iron oxidation has been developed, much less is known about the sulfur oxidatio...
