Understanding The Molecular Mechanism Of Manganese Oxidation In Leptothrix Discophora Ss1
… molecular mechanism of manganese oxidation in Leptothrix discophora SS1 which until now has been hampered by the lack of a genetic system. Leptothrix discophora SS1 is an important model organism that has been used to study the mechanism and consequences of biological manganese oxidation. In …

A Novel Manganese Oxidising Bacterium: Characterisation and Genomic Evaluation
… oxidising bacteria Pseudomonas putida GB-1, Leptothrix cholodnii SP-6 and Leptothrix discophora SS-1. Empirical analyses indicated that manganese oxidation results from the action of an exported soluble factor, which appears to require extracellular activation. An association was found …

The impact of abiotic and biogenic mn oxide coatings on contaminant mobility, bioavailability, and attenuation
… a nano-particulate Mn oxide coated the sheathed Leptothrix discophora SP-6 forming a dendritic biofilm structure. The surface charge and the local structure were consistent with that of abiotic HMO where the oxide potentially forms a polymer-like precursor to birnessite consistent with the …

Bacterial influence on uranium oxidation reduction reactions : implications for environmental remediation and isotopic composition
… product, UO2. The manganese oxidizing bacterium Leptothrix discophora produces manganese oxides with can both adsorb uranyl and partially oxidize UO2. Determination of if and how bacteria can influence the oxidation of uranium is important because oxidation will increase the solubility and …
