Abstract

Several loci on theParacoccus denitrificans chromosome are involved in the synthesis of cytochromec oxidase. So far three genetic loci have been isolated. One of them contains the structural genes of subunits II and III, as well as two regulatory genes which probably code for oxidase-specific assembly factors. In addition, two distinct genes for subunit I have been cloned, one of which is located adjacent to the cytochromec 550 gene. An alignment of six promoter regions reveals only short common sequences.
