  • Title: Electron transport systems of Nitrosomonas: isolation of a membrane-envelope fraction.
    Author: Hooper AB, Erickson RH, Terry KR.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1972 Apr; 110(1):430-8. PubMed ID: 4336111.
    Abstract:
    Freezing and thawing of Nitrosomonas, followed by centrifugation of the homogenate at 3,000 x g, resulted in a fraction which appeared to consist of an intact membrane-envelope complex and contained approximately 50% of the cell protein and more than 90% of the ubiquinone and cytochrome A-type mammalian cytochrome c oxidase activity. The supernatant fraction, resulting from subsequent centrifugation of the extract at 100,000 x g, contained approximately 50% of the cell protein and more than 80% of the B- and C-type cytochrome and P-463 and the enzymes glutamate dehydrogenase; hydroxylamine dehydrogenase; nitrite synthetase; nitrite reductase; and 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol-, p-phenylenediamine-, pyrogallol-, and hydroquinone-oxidase. Data on the concentration of electron transport components in Nitrosomonas are presented.
