Abstract excerpt
Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1(T) respires aerobically via a branched respiratory chain consisting of both cytochrome c oxidases and quinol oxidases. Here, genes from chromosome II encoding two distinct quinol oxidases have been characterized. The qoxBA genes encode a putative heme-copper quinol oxidase, whereas the qxtAB genes encode a quinol oxidase homologous to the cyanide-insensitive oxidase of Pseudomonas...
