Small clusters of protein in the Cytoplasm that convert Hydrogen Sulfide , gaseous Carbon Dioxide and water into Glucose in a process called Bacterial Chemosynthesis. The rate of Glucose production scales with the concentration of Carbon Dioxide .
Requirements
No requirements.
Processes
Bacterial Chemosynthesis: Hydrogen Sulfide + Carbon Dioxide → Glucose
Converts Hydrogen Sulfide into Glucose . Rate scales with concentration of environmental Carbon Dioxide .
Glycolysis: Glucose Glucose → ATP
Since Chemosynthesizing Proteins are suspending in Cytoplasm, they also perform some Glycolysis.
Modifications
No modifications.
Effects
No special effects.
Upgrades
No upgrades.
Strategy
With Chemosynthesizing Proteins, cells gain access to one of the most abundant and reliable sources of energy in the volcanic vents, Hydrogen Sulfide . This can be stockpiled and steadily processed into Glucose , allowing for more energy stores to be held at one time.
To build an effective chemosynthesizing bacteria, you only need enough Chemosynthesizing Proteins to generate a net increase of Glucose within the cell. A great way to start is by placing two Chemosynthesizing Proteins in the first generation, then Metabolosomes and whichever part you would prefer to power in the generation after. From there on, it is typically safe practice to only place an additional hex of Chemosynthesizing Proteins per every two other parts.
Be wary however, as Hydrogen Sulfide is only present in a select few biomes in the world. Evolving yourself to rely on it as your primary energy source will effectively prevent you from safely traveling to many other environments.
