Metal reduction and sporulation in Desulfotomaculum reducens

Elena Cristina Dalla Vecchia

The genera Desulfotomaculum and Clostridium, belonging to the phylum Firmicutes, comprise Gram-positive, low G+C genomic content, anaerobic, spore- forming bacteria. Desulfotomaculum is a metabolically and environmentally versatile genus capable of growing ...

Desulfotomaculum reducens strain MI-1 is a Gram-positive, sulfate-reducing bacterium also capable of reducing Fe(III). Metal reduction in Gram-positive bacteria is poorly understood. Here, we investigated Fe(III) reduction with lactate, a non-fermentable s ...

Fe(III) reduction during pyruvate fermentation by Desulfotomaculum reducens strain MI-1

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Julien Maillard, Elena Suvorova Buffat, Elena Cristina Dalla Vecchia

Desulfotomaculum reducens MI-1 is a Gram-positive, sulfate-reducing bacterium also capable of reducing several metals, among which is Fe(III). Very limited knowledge is available on the potential mechanism(s) of metal reduction among Gram-positive bacteria ...

Wiley-Blackwell2014

The genus Desulfotomaculum, belonging to the Firmicutes, comprises strictly anaerobic and endospore-forming bacteria capable of dissimilatory sulfate reduction. These microorganisms are metabolically versatile and are widely distributed in the environment. ...

The response of Desulfotomaculum reducens MI-1 to U(VI) exposure: a transcriptomic study

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Cristina Dalla Vecchia

Desulfotomaculum reducens is the first Gram-positive sulfate- and metal-reducing bacterium for which the transcriptomic response to uranium exposure has been evaluated. The genes upregulated during fermentative growth in the presence of U(VI) as compared t ...

U(VI) reduction by spores of Clostridium acetobutylicum

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Suvorova Buffat, Harish Veeramani, Elena Cristina Dalla Vecchia, Nicholas Wigginton

Vegetative cells of Clostridium acetobutylicum are known to reduce hexavalent uranium (U(VI)). We investigated the ability of spores of this organism to drive the same reaction. We found that spores were able to remove U(VI) from solution when H, was provi ...

A promising remediation approach to mitigate subsurface uranium contamination is the stimulation of indigenous bacteria to reduce mobile U(VI) to sparingly soluble U(IV). The product of microbial uranium reduction is often reported as the mineral uraninite ...
