Differential Mechanisms of Microbial As(III) and Sb(III) Oxidation and Their Contribution to Tailings Reclamation
Mine tailings are extremely oligotrophic environments frequently contaminated with elevated As and Sb, making As(III) and Sb(III) oxidation potentially important energy sources for the tailing microbiome. Although they have been proposed to share similar metabolic pathways, a systemic comparison of the As(III) and Sb(III) oxidation mechanisms and energy utilization efficiencies requires further elucidation. In this study, we employed a combination of physicochemical, molecular, and bioinformatic analyses to compare the kinetic and genetic mechanisms of As(III) and Sb(III) oxidation as well as their respective energy efficiencies for fueling the key nutrient acquisition metabolisms. Thiobacillus and Rhizobium spp. were identified as functional populations for both As(III) and Sb(III) oxidation in mine tailings by DNA-stable isotope probing. However, these microorganisms mediated As(III) and Sb(III) oxidation via different metabolic pathways, resulting in preferential oxidation of Sb(III) over As(III). Notably, both As(III) and Sb(III) oxidation can facilitate nitrogen fixation and phosphate solubilization in mine tailings, with Sb(III) oxidation being more efficient in powering these processes. Thus, this study provided novel insights into the microbial As(III) and Sb(III) oxidation mechanisms and their respective nutrient acquisition efficiencies, which may be critical for the reclamation of mine tailings.
