Abstract
Nitrobacter hamburgensis was shown to synthesize at least two distinct membrane-bound b-type cytochromes. One of these, a minor component detected during nitrite oxidation, was also found in the obligately autotrophic species Nitrobacter winogradskyi. During heterotrophic growth of N. hamburgensis a second (major) cytochrome b was detected, which we assume functions as an alternative terminal oxidase.
