| Background | Rhodobacter sphaeroides (strain ATCC 17023 / 2.4.1 / NCIB 8253 / DSM 158) is an alphaproteobacterium. It harbors 2 chromosomes and five plasmids. It possesses an extensive range of energy acquiring mechanisms including photosynthesis, lithotrophy, aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It can also fix molecular nitrogen, synthesize important tetrapyrroles, chlorophylls, heme, and vitamin B12. It has also been shown to detoxify a number of metal oxides and oxyanions and is the subject of ongoing studies on bioremediation and is the first free living bacterium known to utilize the regulatory systems associated with quorum-sensing.
