title: Electron transport in halophilic bacteria: involvement of a menaquinone in the reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidative pathway.
abstract: The reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidative pathway of a halophilic bacterium was found to contain a light-sensitive (360 nm) compound, menaquinone-8, which serves as a cofactor in the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(+)-linked pathway.
