Functional genes of sulfur-oxidizing and sulfate-reducing bacteria and their abundance in both metagenomes. (A) Enzymes associated with intracellular sulfur metabolism in sulfur-oxidizing and sulfate-reducing bacteria. A, B, C, J, K, O, and P indicate the subunit for the according enzyme. OM, outer membrane; HYD, hydrogenase; ACL, ATP citrate lyase; sat, sulfate adenylyltransferase; APS, adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate; APR, adenosine 5'-phosphosulfate reductase; DSR, dissimilatory sulfite reductase. (B) Abundance of the genes corresponding to the enzymes shown in panel A. The functions of the genes shown in panel B are based on proposed models from Sheik et al. (18) and Pereira et al. (19).
