aerobic
chemoorganotroph
sulfolobus are chemolithotrophs by
oxidizing hydrogen sulfide or sulfur to sulfuric acid
shape pf sulfolubus
distinct lobes
sulfolobus can also oxidize this aside from sulfur
Fe2-Fe3
ferrous to ferric
Acidianus can use _____ both
sulfur aerobically and anaerobically
utlization of S in aerobic Acidianus
S eD —> H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) : O eA
utilization of S in anaerobic (acidianus)
H eD—> H2S: S eA

thermoproteales
shape
rod shape
thermoproteus and thermofilum
oxy req
strict anaerobe
how thermoproteus grow chemolithotrophically
use complex substrate: yeast, small peptides, starch, glucose
pyrobaculum differs from thermoproteales since
respire aerobically
uses NO3, Fe3 and S and H as an electron donor
pyrobaculum
optimum temp pf pyrobaculum
100C
