Cytochrome o activity is widespread among bacteria, including pur- ple bacteria, and deserves intensive study. Properties of h-type cytochromes. Cytochromes of the b type have been detected in intact cells of photosynthetic bacteria and have been implicated in light-induced electron transfer processes (12,18), Both cells and chromatophore preparations of Rps. palustris and Rps. spheroides shov/ a clearly.
