Abstract
Since its discovery, Ln-dependent metabolism in bacteria attracted a lot of attention due to its bio-metallurgical application potential regarding Ln recycling and circular economy. The physiological role of Ln is mostly studied dependent on presence and absence. Comparisons of how different (utilizable) Ln affect metabolism have rarely been done. We noticed unexpectedly pronounced changes in gene expression caused by different Ln supplementation. Our research suggests that strain RH AL1 distinguishes different Ln elements and that the effect of Ln reaches into many aspects of metabolism, for instance, chemotaxis, motility, and polyhydroxyalkanoate metabolism. Our findings regarding Ln accumulation suggest a distinction between individual Ln elements and provide insights relating to intracellular Ln homeostasis. Understanding comprehensively how microbes distinguish and handle different Ln elements is key for turning knowledge into application regarding Ln-centered biometallurgy.
