Chrysiogenes arsenatis is a species of bacterium given its own phylum, called the Chrysiogenetes. It has a unique lifestyle and biochemistry. Instead of breathing oxygen it breathes the most oxidized form of arsenic, arsenate. It uses arsenate as its electron donor. Arsenic is usually toxic to life. Bacteria like Chrysiogenes arsenatis are found in anoxic arsenic-contaminated environments.
