Examination of metabolic and regulatory networks of desulfovibrio species
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2004)
The sulfate-reducing bacteria are a morphologically diverse group of organisms characterized by the ability to couple the enzymatic reduction of sulfate to energy production and growth. This metabolic activity has profound ...
Energy metabolism and uranium (VI) reduction by Desulfovibrio
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) of the genus Desulfovibrio can breathe uranium in a manner similar to the way in which we (human beings) breathe oxygen. In respiration, we transfer electrons from food to oxygen, producing ...
