مستخلص: The iron-oxidizing Gallionellaceae drive a wide variety of biogeochemical cycles through their metabolisms and biominerals. To better understand the environmental impacts of Gallionellaceae, we need to improve our knowledge of their diversity and metabolisms, especially any novel iron oxidation mechanisms. Here, we used a pangenomic analysis of 103 genomes to resolve Gallionellaceae phylogeny and explore the range of genomic potential. Using a concatenated ribosomal protein tree and key gene patterns, we determined Gallionellaceae has four genera, divided into two groups-iron-oxidizing bacteria (FeOB) Gallionella , Sideroxydans , and Ferriphaselus with known iron oxidases (Cyc2, MtoA) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) Candidatus Nitrotoga with nitrite oxidase (Nxr). The FeOB and NOB have similar electron transport chains, including genes for reverse electron transport and carbon fixation. Auxiliary energy metabolisms including S oxidation, denitrification, and organotrophy were scattered throughout the Gallionellaceae FeOB. Within FeOB, we found genes that may represent adaptations for iron oxidation, including a variety of extracellular electron uptake (EEU) mechanisms. FeOB genomes encoded more predicted c -type cytochromes overall, notably more multiheme c -type cytochromes (MHCs) with >10 CXXCH motifs. These include homologs of several predicted outer membrane porin-MHC complexes, including MtoAB and Uet. MHCs are known to efficiently conduct electrons across longer distances and function across a wide range of redox potentials that overlap with mineral redox potentials, which can help expand the range of usable iron substrates. Overall, the results of pangenome analyses suggest that the Gallionellaceae genera Gallionella , Sideroxydans , and Ferriphaselus are primarily iron oxidizers, capable of oxidizing dissolved Fe 2+ as well as a range of solid iron or other mineral substrates.
