Identification of Antimonate Reducing Bacteria and Their Potential Metabolic Traits by the Combination of Stable Isotope Probing and Metagenomic-Pangenomic Analysis

Weimin Sun et al.

Summary: Microorganisms play an important role in altering the speciation, mobility, and bioavailability of antimony (Sb), particularly in the reduction of Sb(V). By using DNA-stable isotope probing and metagenomics analysis, this study identified Pseudomonas and Geobacter as potential Sb(V)-reducing bacteria in Sb-contaminated sites, with Geobacter potentially playing a key role in Sb(V) reduction based on the presence of specific genes. This work provides valuable insights into the microbial community responsible for Sb(V) reduction.

Diversity and Metabolic Potentials of As(III)-Oxidizing Bacteria in Activated Sludge

Rui Xu et al.

Summary: This study investigated the potential of biological arsenite oxidation in wastewater treatment facilities and identified putative AOB responsible for this process through DNA-SIP and metagenomic binning. Functional genes encoding As resistance, As(III) oxidation, denitrification, and carbon fixation were found in the MAGs associated with these AOB, indicating their metabolic potentials. The presence of genes related to secondary metabolite biosynthesis and extracellular polymeric substance metabolism may enhance the capacity of these AOB for As(III) oxidation in activated sludge.

Patterns of microbial arsenic detoxification genes in low-arsenic continental paddy soils

Chi Zhang et al.

Summary: The diversity and abundance of arsenic detoxification genes in paddy soils varied significantly across different climatic zones in China, mainly influenced by factors such as soil pH, average annual temperature, and arsenic contents. These functional genes were mainly carried by bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes.
