Abstract:The low potential c-type cytochrome from the phototrophic purple sulphur bacterium Thiocapsa roseopersicina, strain BBS was isolated in electrophoretically homogeneous state. The bulk of the cytochrome (approximately 90%) after disruption of the cells remained in the membrane fraction. The absorption spectrum of the cytochrome was characterized by the maxima at 420, 523 and 552 nm in the reduced state and at 408 nm in the oxidized one. The cytochrome interacted with CO in the reduced state. The molecular weight of the cytochrome is 50 000. The cytochrome contains great amounts of phenylalanine, leucine, valine, aspartic and glutamic acids and can be reduced by dithionite but not by cysteine, sulfide or ascorbate. Besides, the cytochrome can also be reduced by NAD(P)H in the presence of NAD(P)-reductases of T. roseopersicina, when ferredoxin of Spirulina platensis or benzyl viologen are added to the reaction mixture. The cytochrome can act as an electron donor (acceptor) for T. roseopersicina hydrogenase.
