Assimilation and metabolism of exogenous organic compounds by the strict autotrophs Thiobacillus thioparus and Thiobacillus neapolitanus.
The assimilation and utilization of the individual carbon atoms of pyruvate and acetate by cells of Thiobacillus thioparus and T. neapolitanus, in the presence and absence of an energy source, were studied by use of radioactive substrates. Both organisms produced (14)CO(2) from (14)C-labeled pyruvate, but more came from carbon 1 than from carbons 2 or 3. The conversion of the carbons of acetate...
متن کاملThe oxidation of thiosulfate and phosphorylation in extracts of Thiobacillus thioparus.
Thiobmillus thioparus is an autotrophic microorganism that obtains the energy required for growth by the oxidation of reduced inorganic sulfur compounds to sulfate. When it is grown on high concentrations of thiosulfate, the organism accumulates elemental sulfur and produces sulfate. The pathway of thiosulfate oxidation has been essentially unknown; however, it has been postulated that tetrathi...
متن کاملMechanism of oxidation of inorganic sulfur compounds by thiosulfate-grown Thiobacillus thiooxidans.
Thiobacillus thiooxidans was grown at pH 5 on thiosulfate as an energy source, and the mechanism of oxidation of inorganic sulfur compounds was studied by the effect of inhibitors, stoichiometries of oxygen consumption and sulfur, sulfite, or tetrathionate accumulation, and cytochrome reduction by substrates. Both intact cells and cell-free extracts were used in the study. The results are consi...
متن کاملEffect of Thiol-binding Reagents on the Metabolism of Thiosulfate and Tetrathionate by Thiobacillus Neapolitanus.
Trudinger, P. A. (Division of Plant Industry, Canberra, Australia). Effect of thiol-binding reagents on the metabolism of thiosulfate and tetrathionate by Thiobacillus neapolitanus. J. Bacteriol. 89:617-625. 1965.-Iodoacetamide, N-ethyl maleimide (NEM), p-chloromercuribenzoate (CMB), Mercurochrome, and HgCl(2) inhibited the oxidation of thiosulfate to sulfate by Thiobacillus neapolitanus; tetra...
متن کاملRegulation of the Thiobacillus intermedius glucose uptake system by thiosulfate.
Cells of the mixotrophic chemolithotroph (facultative autotroph) Thiobacillus intermedius which have been grown on a glucose-yeast extract medium, a condition in which glucose is used as a source of energy, accumulate the non-metabolizable analogue 2-deoxy-d-glucose against a concentration gradient in a predominantly unchanged state. On the other hand, cells grown mixotrophically on a thiosulfa...
