Abstract excerpt
A transposon Tn5-mob insertional mutant of Paracoccus pantotrophus GB17, strain TP43, was unable to oxidize thiosulfate aerobically or to reduce nitrite anaerobically, and the cellular yields were generally decreased by 11 to 20%. Strain TP43 was unable to form functional c-type cytochromes, as determined by difference spectroscopy and heme staining. However, formation of apocytochromes and their transport to the...
