Abstract：
:Rhodospirillum salexigens is a moderately halophilic purple phototrophic bacterium which grows optimally in 8% NaCl. The amino acid sequences of the two principal soluble cytochromes c have been determined. One of these is a cytochrome c2, similar in size to mitochondrial cytochrome c. While clearly of the same sequence class as mitochondrial cytochrome c and the proteins from several other Gram-negative bacteria, it does not show particular affinity to any already known sequence in terms of the percentage sequence identity. The other protein is a cytochrome c', but is also a divergent member of this widespread group. The lack of appreciable sequence identity to other species is probably due to a limit of divergence which has been reached for the majority of purple bacterial species. However, the numbers of insertions and deletions and their locations in cytochromes c2 and c' suggest that R salexigens may be related to Rhodospirillum molischianum. Like other electron transport proteins from halophiles, both of these cytochromes are notable for their high content of arginine as compared with lysine and both are acidic. However, they do not show any particular sequence homology to electron transport proteins that have been characterized from the extremely halophilic phototrophes of the genus Ectothiorhodospira. Thus, it appears that adaptation to halophilic habitats has independently occurred more than once in purple bacteria.
