The gene for the soluble cytochromeb562fromEscherichia coliB has been cloned on aSalI fragment. The analysis of the gene reveals the presence of a leader sequence in front of the sequence encoding the mature protein. Expression of cytochromeb562using thelac‐promoter produced the protein to a level of 3–5% of total protein. This over‐production enables employment of a simple, high‐yield purification protocol to obtain homogeneous cytochromeb562. Spectroscopic and N‐terminal sequence analyses of the purified protein demonstrate that it is identical to the chromosomally expressed cytochromeb562purified and characterized fromE. coliB [Itagaki, E. & Hager, L. P. (1966)J. Biol. Chem. 241, 3687–3695]. It is demonstrated that the genomic sequence codes for a classic N‐terminal signal sequence and that mature cytochromeb562is translocated to the periplasmic space.
