Chemotaxis of Leptospirillum ferrooxidans and other acidophilic chemolithotrophs: comparison with the Escherichia coli chemosensory system

Ni 2+, Fe 2+ and Cu 2+ were attractants and aspartate was an apparent repellent for Leptospirillum ferrooxidans, a behaviour opposite to that for Escherichia coli. Membranes from L. ferrooxidans contained proteins with a molecular mass in the range of 80 kDa which were methylated in vitro. Methylati...
