Investigations

The family of Desulfobacteraceae comprises mtabolically versatile, completely oxidizing, sulfate-reducing bacteria that play an important role in the global carbon- and sulfor-cycles, mainly in the marine realm. In this study, six different species of Desulfobacteraceae were studied by comparative proteogenomics, i.e. Desulfobacula toluolica Tol2, Desulfococcus multivorans 1be1, Desulfonema limicola, Desulfonema magnum, Desulfosarcina variabilis 3be13 and Desulfobacterium autotrophicum ...
