See microbial metabolism Microbial metabolism Hydrogen oxidation hydrogen oxidation . These bacteria include Hydrogenobacter thermophilus , Hydrogenovibrio marinus , and Helicobacter pylori . There are both Gram positive and Gram negative knallgas bacteria. Most grow best under microaerophilic conditions. They do this because the hydrogenase enzyme used in hydrogen oxidation is inhibited by the presence of oxygen, but oxygen is still needed as a terminal electron acceptor .

Sulfur reducing bacteria SRB get their energy by redox reaction reducing elemental sulfur to hydrogen sulfide . They couple this reaction with the oxidation of acetate , succinate or other organic compounds . Several types of bacteria and many non methanogen ic archaea can reduce sulfur. Some bacteria spaced ndash such as Proteus bacterium Proteus , Campylobacter , Pseudomonas and Salmonella spaced ndash have the ability to reduce sulfur, but can also use oxygen and other terminal electron acceptors. Others, such as Desulfuromonas , use only sulfur. These bacteria can be used in industrial processes to generate hydrogen sulfide for the precipitation of metals. Some bacteria can use both elemental sulfur and sulfate as electron acceptors. See sulfate reducing bacteria . References cite book last1 Brock first1 Thomas D. authorlink1 Thomas D.

Instead they use hydrogen sulfide , which is Redox oxidized to produce granules of elemental sulfur . This in turn may be oxidized to form sulfuric acid . The purple sulfur bacteria are divided into two families, the Chromatiaceae and Ectothiorhodospiraceae , which respectively produce internal and external sulfur granules, and show differences in the structure of their internal membranes.

Aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria AAPBs are alphaproteobacteria that are obligate aerobe s that capture energy from light by anoxygenic photosynthesis . Anoxygenic photosynthesis is the phototrophic process where light energy is captured and stored as ATP.

They are widely distributed marine plankton that may constitute over 10 of the open ocean microbial community.
