Coordination of Ubiquinol Oxidase and Cytochrome cbb3 Oxidase Expression by Multiple Regulators in Rhodobacter capsulatus

Received 7 August 2001/ Accepted 24 January 2002

Rhodobacter capsulatus utilizes two terminal oxidases for aerobic respiration, cytochrome cbb3 and ubiquinol oxidase. To determine the transcription factors involved in terminal oxidase expression, ccoN-lacZ and cydA-lacZ protein fusions were assayed in a variety of regulatory mutants. The results of this and previous studies indicate that cytochrome cbb3 expression is controlled by regB-regA, fnrL, and hvrA and that ubiquinol oxidase expression is controlled by regB-regA, fnrL, hvrA, crtJ, and aerR.
