Proposed roles of the (A) predicted enzymes and pathways involved in CO 2 fixation in A. ferrooxidans linked to (B) gene evidence. Genes are color-coded to match the predicted function of their products. RPI, ribose phosphate isomerase; G-3-P, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate; DHAP, dihydroxyacetone phosphate; 3-PG, 3-phosphoglycerate; PEP, phosphoenolpyruvate.
