Abstract excerpt
We report here the discovery of a novel bacterial gene (cycH) whose product is involved in the biogenesis of most of the cellular cytochromes c. The cycH gene was detected in the course of characterizing a cytochrome oxidase-deficient Bradyrhizobium japonicum Tn5 mutant (strain COX3) in which the transposon insertion disrupted cycH. All of the c-type cytochromes detectable in aerobically grown B. japonicum...
