Deciphering the genome of Desulfovibrio gigas: the role of the hydrogenases
| Summary: | The work presented in this thesis describes the functional characterization of hydrogenases in the overall energy metabolism of the sulfate reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio gigas. With the complete annotation of the D. gigas genome, we were able to verify that only the two previously described hydrogenases are present in this organism, the periplasmic [NiFe] HynAB and the cytoplasmic membrane-bound [NiFe] Ech.(...) |
