Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans ( A. ferrooxidans ) is a gram-negative, extremely acidophilic, mesophilic, chemolithotrophic bacterium and the most well-studied acidophilic organism which is usually found in acid environments such as acid mine drainage. The draft genome sequence of A. ferrooxidans ATCC 23270 was first reported in 2000, fourteen years ago. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with the draft genome sequence, and annotation. This is the draft genome sequence from the A. ferrooxidans, and the 3,142,890 bp long single replicon genome with its 32,719 protein-coding and 64 RNA genes is a part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Bacterial project.

We present the draft genome sequence of Janthinobacterium sp. strain PC23-8, a bacterium isolated from freshwater stream sediment downstream from acid mine drainage. The 6.4-Mb genome sequence of this strain contains several secondary metabolite gene clusters, including one similar to the cyclic peptide jagaricin, synthesized by Janthinobacterium agaricidamnosum.

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of “ Acidibacillus ferrooxidans ” strain ITV01, a ferrous iron- and sulfide-mineral-oxidizing, obligate heterotrophic, and acidophilic bacterium affiliated with the phylum Firmicutes . Strain ITV01 was isolated from neutral drainage from a low-grade chalcopyrite from a mine in northern Brazil.

Acid mine drainage is highly acidic and contains large quantities of Fe and heavy metal elements. Thus, it is important to promote the transformation of Fe into secondary iron minerals that exhibit strong heavy-metal removal abilities. Using simulated acid mine drainage, this work analyzes the influence of monovalent cations (K+, NH4+, and Na+) on the Fe2+ oxidation and total Fe deposition efficiencies, as well as the phases of secondary iron minerals in an Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans system. It also compares the Cr(VI) (K2Cr2O7) and As(III) (As2O3) removal efficiencies of different schwertmannites. The results indicated that high concentrations of monovalent cations (NH4+ ≥ 320 mmol/L, and Na+ ≥ 1600 mmol/L) inhibited the biological oxidation of Fe2+. Moreover, the mineralizing abilities of the three cations differed (K+ > NH4+ > Na+), with cumulative Fe deposition efficiencies of 58.7%, 28.1%, and 18.6%, respectively [n(M) = 53.3 mmol/L, cultivation time = 96 h]. Additionally, at initial Cr(VI) and As(III) concentrations of 10 and 1 mg/L, respectively, the Cr(VI) and As(III) removal efficiencies exhibited by schwertmannites acquired by the three mineralization systems differed [n(Na) = 53.3 > n(NH4) = 53.3 > n(K) = 0.8 mmol/L]. Overall, the analytical results suggested that the removal efficiency of toxic elements was mainly influenced by the apparent structure, particle size, and specific surface area of schwertmannite.

Here, we present the draft genome sequence of the type strain of “ Acidibacillus ferrooxidans ,” a mesophilic, heterotrophic, and acidophilic bacterium that was isolated from mine spoilage subjected to accelerated weathering in humidity cell tests carried out by the former U.S. Bureau of Mines in Salt Lake City, UT.

The acidophilic heterotrophic bacteria Acidiphilium spp. were considered as a ministrant of Leptospirillum spp., Acidithiobacillus spp. and other autotrophic bacteria in acid mine drainage (AMD). 25 Acidiphilium-like bacterial strains were isolated from eight different mines in China and their physiology was characterized. Their marmatite-bioleaching ability has been investigated and compared with that of a mixed culture of Acidiphilium sp. and Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. The results indicated that some Acidiphilium-like strains exhibited a high marmatite-bioleaching ability, which was even higher than that of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. The leaching efficiency was not higher in mixed than in pure culture. The phylogenetic relationship of the 25 Acidiphilium-like strains was analyzed by 16S rRNA sequencing, GyrB sequencing and rep-PCR genomic fingerprinting. The 25 strains and other eight species of Acidiphilium spp. were clustered into three groups.

Bacteria belonging to the family Acidimicrobiaceae are frequently encountered in heavy metal-contaminated acidic environments. However, their phylogenetic and metabolic diversity is poorly resolved. We present draft genome sequences of two novel and phylogenetically distinct Acidimicrobiaceae members assembled from an acid mine drainage biofilm metagenome.
