The oxidation of Fe(II) by anoxygenic photosynthetic bacteria was likely a key contributor to Earth's biosphere prior to the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis and is still found in a diverse range of modern environments. All known phototrophic Fe(II) oxidizers can utilize a wide range of substrates, thus making them very metabolically flexible. However, the underlying adaptations required to oxidize Fe(II), a potential stressor, are not completely understood. We used a combination of quantita ...[more]
