Structural Analyses of SoxY and SoxZ Proteins from Epsilonproteobacterium Sulfurimonas denitrificans: A Structural Bioinformatics Approach
Abstract: Abstract:Molecular level participation of epsilonproteobacteria for the global sulfur oxidation phenomena is an essential zone to be indulged with. Epsilonproteobacteria aids in the microbial sulfur metabolism both at and beneath the seafloor. For the recycling of the inorganic sulfur compounds, microbial redox reactions are one of the responsible and most important reactions to maintain the environmental sulfur balance. These reactions are carried out by phylogenetically diverse sets of microorganisms. The …

The Mechanism of Regulation of Chemolithotrophic Sulfur Oxidation in Pseudaminobacter salicylatoxidans KCT001
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Although the mode of repression of the sulfur oxidation (sox) operon has been elucidated in recent times the mechanism of its derepression is not yet known. Here we propose a comprehensive mechanism of sox gene expression by envisaging redox modulation of soxR as the key to the repression as well as derepression of sox-mediated thiosulfate oxidation Pseudaminobacter salicylatoxidans KCT001. While soxR, rendered to its …
