Abstract
The reactivity between different cytochromes c purified from Pseudomon as aeruginosa cells grown aerobically in the absence of nitrate and is olated cytochromes co and baa(3) was determined. The P. aeruginosa cyt ochrome co reacted most rapidly with the membrane-bound cytochrome c-5 51 among three c-type cytochromes analyzed, whereas the cytochrome baa (3) reacted best with the membrane-bound cytochrome c-555. The results indicated that two terminal electron transfer systems are present in aerobic P. aeruginosa: one contains the cytochrome c-551 and cytochrom e co, and the other contains the cytochrome c-555 and cytochrome baa(3 ).
