Abstract excerpt
Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans (Af) is an acidophilic bacterium that grows in rigid surroundings and gets its own energy from the oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+. These bacteria are involved in the bioleaching process. Cyc1 is a periplasmic protein with a crucial role in electron transportation in the respiratory chain. His53 of the Cyc1 protein, involved in electron transfer to CoxB, was selected for mutation and...
