Abstract
The CO dehydrogenase structural genes (cox) and orf4 are clustered in the transcriptional order coxM--> coxS-->coxL-->orf4 on the 128-kb meg aplasmid pHCG3 of the carboxidotroph Oligotropha carboxidovorans OM5. Sequence analysis suggested association of molybdopterin cytosine dinu cleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide with CoxL and of the [2Fe-2S] clusters with CoxS.
