Abstract
The denitrifying bacterium, Pseudomonas denitrificans, yields a c-type cytochrome with many properties similar to those of hemoglobin and myoglobin. Presented is a detailed study of the chemical and physical properties of the Pseudomonas cytochrome including the amino acid sequence of the heme peptide. This cytochrome, initially isolated by Iwasaki and co-workers and termed “cryptocytochrome c,” can be classified as a cytochrome cc′, examples of which have been found previously only in the photosynthetic bacteria.
