Cytochrome A and X from Nitrosomonas europaea

Cytochrome A (c-554) and cytochrome X (Probable tetraheme cytochrome c-type) both from Nitrosomonas europaea.

The two cytochromes are involved in the process of transferring electrons from HAO to AMO in the following reactions:

HAO reaction, 2 electrons gained:

NH2OH + H2O + 2 cycAXox → NO2- + 2 cycAXred + 5 H+

AMO reaction 2 electrons used:

NH3 + O2 + cycAXred + 2 H+ → NH2OH + H2O + cycAXox


Usage and Biology

When highly expressed in E.coli the cells turn dark red. If grown on media with supplementation of d-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) it tends to get a darker color because of the extra heme incorporated.
