Abstract	Capacity for lithotrophic growth coupled to oxidation of reduced sulfur compounds was revealed in an Azospirillum strain, A. thiophilum BV-S$^{ T }$. Oxygen concentration in the medium was the major factor determining the type of energy metabolism (organotrophic or lithotrophic) in the presence of thiosulfate. Under aerobic conditions, metabolism of A. thiophilum BV-S$^{T}$ was organoheterotrophic, with thiosulfate oxidation to tetrathionate resulting from the interaction with reactive oxygen species, mostly H$_{2}$O$_{2}$, which was formed in the electron transport chain in the course of oxidation of organic electron donors. Under microaerobic conditions (2 mg/L O$_{2}$ in liquid medium), A. thiophilum BV-S$^{T}$ carried out lithoheterotrophic (mixotrophic) metabolism; enzymes of the dissimilatory type of sulfur metabolism were responsible for thiosulfate oxidation to tetrathionate and sulfate. Two enzyme systems were found in the cells: thiosulfate dehydrogenase, which catalyzes incomplete oxidation of thiosulfate to tetrathionate and the thiosulfate-oxidizing Sox enzyme complex, which is involved in complete oxidation of thiosulfate to sulfate. The genetic determinant of a Sox complex component in A. thiophilum BV-S$^{T}$ was revealed. The soxB gene was found, and its expression under microaerobic conditions was observed to increase 32-fold compared to aerobic cultivation.
