Keywords	Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans; Anaerobic; Ferric Iron Reduction; Proteomics; Sulfur Oxidation
Description	Loss of ferric iron reduction ability during anaerobic sulfur oxidation in chemolithoautotrophic acidophiles was associated with downregulation or absence of iron-oxidizing system proteins and enzymes involved in sulfur metabolism. The process may participate in biohydrometallurgy.
