A silver ion-resistant T. ferrooxidans which grew in the presence of 5 × 10-4 M silver nitrate was obtained by subculturing cells in autotrophic medium supplemented with silver nitrate. The amount of silver ions released from the resistant-cells at pH 5 to pH 7 was larger than that from the sensitrve-cells. Almost all silver ions in the cells were distributed in the cell-wall and cell-membrane. Since inhibition of cell growth and iron-oxidase by silver ions was decreased by the addition of the reduced form of glutathione (GSH) and a GSH dependent release of silver ions from the membrane was observed, it was proposed that GSH plays an important role in the resistance mechanism of the bacterium.
