Ectothiorhodospira mobilis Pelsh, a photosynthetic sulfur bacterium depositing sulfur outside the cells.
From salt flats on the Galapagos Islands, two strains of a red photosynthetic bacterium were isolated and identified as Ectothiorhodospira mobilis, an organism first described by Pelsh in 1937. The cells are curved in a short spiral, 0.7 to 1.0 mu wide and 2.0 to 4.8 mu long. They are motile by a polar tuft of flagella. Cells contain several large stacks of lamellar membranes, carrying the pigm...
متن کاملCytochromes of the Purple Sulfur Bacterium Ectothiorhodospira shaposh nikovii
Ectothiorhodospira shaposhnikovii, Cytochrome c', Cytochrome c-553 (549), Cytochrome b-558, Sulfur Metabolism Two c-type cytochromes (a high spin cytochrome c' and a low spin cytochrome c-553(549) with asymmetrical a-band) and a low spin cytochrome 6-558 from the purple sulfur bacterium Ectothiorhodospira shaposhnikovii were purified by ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration and charact...
متن کاملA membrane-bound flavocytochrome c-sulfide dehydrogenase from the purple phototrophic sulfur bacterium Ectothiorhodospira vacuolata.
The amino acid sequence of Ectothiorhodospira vacuolata cytochrome c-552, isolated from membranes with n-butanol, shows that it is a protein of 77 amino acid residues with a molecular mass of 9,041 Da. It is closely related to the cytochrome subunit of Chlorobium limicola f. sp. thiosulfatophilum flavocytochrome c-sulfide dehydrogenase (FCSD), having 49% identity. These data allowed isolation o...
متن کاملCrystallization of a high potential iron-sulfur protein from the halophilic phototrophic bacterium Ectothiorhodospira halophila.
Crystals of the high-potential iron-sulfur protein from Ectothiorhodospira halophila strain BN 9626 have been grown from 3.4 to 3.5 M ammonium sulfate solutions at pH 7.5. The crystals belong to the space group P21 with unit cell dimensions of a = 60.00 A, b = 31.94 A, c = 40.27 A, and beta = 100.5 degrees. There are 2 molecules/asymmetric unit. The crystals diffract to at least 1.8 A, are stab...
متن کاملPrimary structure of a high potential iron-sulfur protein from the purple non-sulfur photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas gelatinosa.
The third amino acid sequence of a high potential iron-sulfur protein, that of the non-sulfur purple photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas gelatinosa, has been determined. It consists of a single polypeptide chain of 74 amino acid residues, which is slightly smaller than the high potential iron-sulfur proteins from the sulfur purple bacteria Chromatium vinosum (85 residues) and Thiocapsa pf...
