The cbaAB genes for bo3-type cytochrome c oxidase in Bacillus stearothermophilus.
Structural genes were cloned for cytochrome bo3-type cytochrome c oxidase recently isolated from a Gram-positive thermophile Bacillus stearothermophilus. Sequencing and Northern blotting analyses indicated that the two genes cbaA and cbaB composed an operon encoding for subunits I and II, respectively, and that the oxidase was SoxB-type. They are the first genes for a SoxB-type cytochrome c oxidase whose natural substrate is known.
