physiological function | sulfur globule oxidation is strictly dependent on the dissimilatory sulfite reductase system. Deletion of dsrM or dsrT, or the two dsrCABL clusters abolishes sulfur globule oxidation and prevents formation of sulfate from sulfide. The DSR system also seems to be involved in the formation of thiosulfate. The dsr mutants incapable of complete substrate oxidation oxidizes sulfide and thiosulfate about twice as fast as the wild-type, while having only slightly lower growth rates of 7080% of wild-type | Chlorobaculum tepidum |
