| autotrophy |
A unique form of metabolism found only in bacteria. Inorganic compounds (eg, NH3, NO2-, S2, and Fe2+) are oxidized directly (without using sunlight) to yield energy. This metabolic mode also requires energy for CO2 reduction, like photosynthesis, but no lipid-mediated processes are involved. This metabolic mode has also been called chemotrophy, chemoautotrophy, or chemolithotrophy.

Life forms that use carbon dioxide as the sole or principal carbon source for growth are described as autotrophs, and the use of carbon dioxide is called autotrophic carbon dioxide fixation. In the reticulo-rumen the autotrophs are the methanogens and the homoacetogens. Both of these groups of microorganisms use the acetyl CoA pathway of CO2 fixation. ...
