Project description:The study identified a total of 3169 gene transcripts (98.4% coverage). By comparing the anaerobic versus aerobic H2-oxidizing At. ferrooxidans cultures, a total of 371 DEGs were found. Of these, 168 DEGs were increased significantly during the aerobic growth on H2 (with O2 as the sole electron acceptor), while 203 DEGs increased significantly during anaerobic growth on H2 (with Fe3+ as the sole electron acceptor).
