Sulfite oxidation in Chlorobaculum tepidum
The green sulfur bacterium Chlorobaculum tepidum is proposed to oxidize sulfide and elemental sulfur via sulfite as an obligate intermediate. The sulfite pool is predicted to be contained in the cytoplasm and be oxidized by the concerted action of AprBA, which directly oxidizes sulfite, and QmoABC,...
