Desulfurella amilsii is an acidotolerant sulfur-reducing bacterium isolated from sediments of an acidic river. It can grow in a broad range of pH and can obtain energy via respiring elemental sulfur or thiosulfate, as well as by disproportionating elemental sulfur. Its genome encodes the enzyme sulf...
This study focused on a strain belonging to a genus and class (Dissulfuribacteria) of Desulfobacterota other than those on which functional studies of sulfur disproportionation have been conducted before. Dissulfuribacter thermophilus strain S69T, which was the subject of a comparative proteomic ana...
