A mutant ofParacoccus denitrificanswhich is deficient in c-type cytochromes grows aerobically with generation times similar to those obtained with a wild-type strain. Theaa3-type oxidase is functional in the mutant as judged by spectrophotometric assays of cytochromecoxidation using the membrane particles and cytochromeaa3reduction in whole cells. The cytochromecoxidase (aa3-type) of the c-less mutant oxidizes soluble cytochromecat rates equivalent to those obtained with the wild-type. NADH and succinate oxidase activities of the membrane preparations of the mutant and wild-type are also comparable in the absence of detergent treatment. Exogenous soluble cytochrome c can be both reduced by NADH- and succinate-linked systems and oxidized by cytochromeaa3present in membranes of the mutant strain. Rapid overall electron transport can occur in the c-less mutant, suggesting that reactions result from collision of diffusing complexes.
