The interrelation of the two c-type cytochromes in Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides photosynthesis.

ABSTRACT: Photosynthetic electron flow in the bacterium Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides involves two c-type cytochromes, one membrane-bound and the other a soluble protein, cytochrome c2. Membranes deficient in cytochrome c2 were used for photo-oxidation studies, with and without the addition of purified cytochrome c2. The results favour a series interrelation, membrane cytochrome c-cytochrome c2-reaction centre.
