I would like to investigate the hypothesis that arsenite-oxidizing phototrophs utilize arxA for their metabolism. Currently the only bacteria known or suspected of utilizing ArxA were isolated from Mono Lake hot springs on Paoha Island or in the deeper parts of the lake. If arxA gene did in fact arise in phototrophs as hypothesized, then it should be widely distributed in other arsenite-rich environments such as geothermal waters of hot springs and the euphotic zone of anoxic lake water. To address this hypothesis I will studying the distribution of the arxA gene in Mono County.
