- W3176077396 abstract "Abstract Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans are well-studied iron- and sulfur-oxidizing acidophilic chemolithoautotrophs that are exploited for their ability to participate in the bioleaching of metal sulfides. Here, we overexpressed the endogenous glutamate--cysteine ligase and glutathione synthetase genes in separate strains and found that glutathione synthetase overexpression increased intracellular glutathione levels. We explored the impact of pH on the halotolerance of iron oxidation in wild type and engineered cultures. The increase in glutathione allowed the modified cells to grow under salt concentrations and pH conditions that are fully inhibitory to wild type cells. These results indicate that glutathione overexpression can be used to increase halotolerance in A. ferrooxidans and would likely be a useful strategy on other acidophilic bacteria. Importance The use of acidophilic bacteria in the hydrometallurgical processing of sulfide ores can enable many benefits including the potential reduction of environmental impacts. The cells involved in bioleaching tend to have limited halotolerance, and increased halotolerance could enable several benefits, including a reduction in the need for fresh water resources. We show that the genetic modification of A. ferrooxidans for the overproduction of glutathione is a promising strategy to enable cells to resist the oxidative stress that can occur during growth in the presence of salt." @default.
