Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome b558 in the cytoplasmic membrane of Bacillus subtilis constitutes the anchor and electron acceptor to the flavoprotein (Fp) and iron-sulphur protein (Ip) in succinate:quinone oxidoreductase, and seemingly contains two haem groups. EPR and MCD spectroscopic data indicate bis-imidazole ligation of the haem. Apo-cytochrome was found in the membrane fraction of haem-deficient B. subtilis, suggesting that...
