Mutant strains of Escherichia coli lacking DsbA, DsbB, or DsbD (proteins required for disulfide bond formation in the periplasm) did not produce mitochondrial or chloroplast cytochromes c, as previously observed for bacterial ones. Unexpectedly, however, cytochrome C-555 (AA c(555)) from a hyperthermophile, Aquifex aeolicus, was produced in the E. coli periplasm without Dsb proteins, three times more than with them. These results indicate that the Dsb proteins are not necessarily required for AA C-555 production in E. coli, possibly because of hyperthermophilic origin compared with the others.
