Abstract: | Methanol oxidation was studied in several RuMP and serine type methylotrophic bacteria. On the basis of the distribution of the dissimilatory enzymes and the electrophoretic mobility of the methanol dehydrogenases, the methanol and methane oxidizers of the RuMP type belong to two different taxonomic groups. The pink pigmented facultative serine type methylotrophs represent another taxon. |
