Abstract

The reduction by sulfide of exogenous ubiquinone is compared to the reduction of cytochromes in chromatophores of Rhodobacter capsulatus. From titrations with sulfide values for V-max of 300 and 10 mu moles reduced/mg bacteriochlorophyll a h,bacteriochlorophyll a.h, and for K, of 5 and 3 mu M were estimated, for decyl-ubiquinone- and cytochrome c-reduction, respectively. Both reactions are sensitive to KCN, as has been found for sulfide-quinone reductase (SQR) in Oscillatoria limnetica, which is a flavoprotein. Effects of inhibitors interfering with quinone binding sites suggest that at least part of the electron transport from sulfide in R. capsulatus employs the cytochrome bc(1)-complex via the ubiquinone pool.
