Regulation of dissimilatory sulfur oxidation in the purple sulfur bacterium Allochromatium vinosum

In the purple sulfur bacterium Allochromatium vinosum, thiosulfate oxidation is strictly dependent on the presence of three periplasmic Sox proteins encoded by the soxBXAK and soxYZ genes. It is also well documented that proteins encoded in the dsr (dissimilatory sulfite reductase) operon, dsrABEFHC...
