The cytochrome oxidases of Bacillus subtilis: mapping of a gene affecting cytochrome aa3 and its replacement by cytochrome o in a mutant strain.

A mutant of Bacillus subtilis has been isolated that fails to grow on succinate as the source of carbon, yet grows on glucose. Intact cells of the mutant and cytoplasmic membranes derived therefrom lack cytochromes a and a3 but contain a cytochrome o-like pigment, which forms a photodissociable comp...
