http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/17098896http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Purple aerobic anoxygenic phototrophs (AAPs) are the only organisms known to capture light energy to enhance growth only in the presence of oxygen but do not produce oxygen. The highly adaptive AAPs compose more than 10% of the microbial community in some euphotic upper ocean waters and are potentially major contributors to the fixation of the greenhouse gas CO2. We present the complete genomic sequence and feature analysis of the AAP Roseobacter denitrificans, which reveal clues to its physiology. The genome lacks genes that code for known photosynthetic carbon fixation pathways, and most notably missing are genes for the Calvin cycle enzymes ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBisCO) and phosphoribulokinase. Phylogenetic evidence implies that this absence could be due to a gene loss from a RuBisCO-containing alpha-proteobacterial ancestor. We describe the potential importance of mixotrophic rather than autotrophic CO2 fixation pathways in these organisms and suggest that these pathways function to fix CO2 for the formation of cellular components but do not permit autotrophic growth. While some genes that code for the redox-dependent regulation of photosynthetic machinery are present, many light sensors and transcriptional regulatory motifs found in purple photosynthetic bacteria are absent."xsd:string
