Thiobacillus thiooxidans is of great importance in bioming. Enzymological research revealed that Thiobacillus thiooxidans is deficient in some key enzymes of the EMP, ED pathways and Krebs cycle, such as phosphofructokinase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrase, andα-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase activities. So, these organisms could not respire organic substance and obtain energy from them and can only obtain energy from the chemolithotrophic oxidation of inorganic sulphur and its compounds and use this energy to support autotrophic growth on carbon dioxide. Therefore, the slow growth rate and the low cell yield of this organism and its sensitivity to heavy metals has limited its further use. Using E. coli SM10 (pSDK-1) as the donors and T. thiooxidans Tt-12 as the recipients, the plasmid pSDK-1 could be mobilized into T. thiooxidans strains with the aid of tra gene on the genomic DNA of E. coli SM10. The stability of plasmid pSDK-1 in Tt-12 was tested. About 74% of T. thiooxidans cells carried the recombinant plasmids after being cultured for 50 generations without selective pressure. Glucose caused a significant stimulation on the cell growth of the transconjugants, but had no effect on the wild type of T. thiooxidans. Since the fixation of CO2 has a high energy requirement, synthesis of a part of the cell material from glucose instead of CO2 should have an energy sparing effect, which should lead to an increase in cell yield. Result showed that the concentration of glucose in the growth medium did not change for Tt-12 strain but decreased gradually for Tt-12(pSDK-1) transconjugants during the cultivation, however the level of glucose decreased very slowly. 13C NMR and 31P NMR is used to study the metabolism pathways of glucose in Tt-12(pSDK-1). Result showed that the activity of the phosphofructokinase-1 was
