Abstract

The physiological electron acceptor of quinohemoprotein amine dehydrogenase (QH-AmDH) from Paracoccus denitrificans IFO 12442 was identified by biochemical and electrochemical methods. Of three types of heme c-containing proteins purified together with QH-AmDH from the periplasm of n-butylamine-grown cells, only constitutive cytochrome c-550 was reduced by the addition of QH-AmDH and n-butylamine. Reconstitution of the respiratory chain revealed that cytochrome c-550 mediates the electron transfer from QH-AmDH to the terminal oxidase. This is a new pathway of the amine oxidation respiratory chain of P. denitrificans.
