The reductive glycine pathway allows autotrophic growth of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans

There are several pathways for CO2 fixation in photoautotrophic and chemoautotrophic microorganisms. Here, the authors provide experimental demonstration for the operation of the reductive glycine pathway in a natural microorganism, Desulfovibrio desulfuricans.
