Plant Physiology 43:597-605 (1968) © 1968 American Society of Plant Biologists Respiratory Electron Transport Systems of Aquatic Fungi. I. Leptomitus lacteus and Apodachlya punctata 1Department of Botany, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720
The electron transport systems of 2 species of aquatic fungi, Leptomitus lacteus and A podachlya punctata, contained cytochrome a-a3 (605 mµ), 2 b type cytochromes (564 and 557 mµ), c type cytochrome (551 mµ), and flavoprotein, but they appeared to lack cytochrome c1. Reduced-minus-oxidized difference spectra and difference spectra in the presence of antimycin A or cyanide were used to characterize these systems. Studies with the electron microscope revealed that hyphae of Leptomitus lacteus contained numerous, conspicuous mitochondria with tubular cristae.
1 This investigation was supported in part by a United States Public Health Service Fellowship (1-F1-GM-20, 026-01) and by a National Science Foundation grant to Dr. Roderic B. Park (GB-4245). These data are from a thesis presented to the Graduate Division of the University of California in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the doctorate degree.
