Isolation and characterization of a transposon mutant of Shewanella putrefaciens MR-1 deficient in fumarate reductase.

A transposon mutant, designated CMTn-3, of Shewanella putrefaciens MR-1 that was deficient in fumarate reduction was isolated and characterized. In contrast to the wild-type, CMTn-3 could not grow anaerobically with fumarate as the electron acceptor, and it lacked benzyl viologen-linked fumarate reductase activity. Consistent with this, CMTn-3 lacked a 65 kDa c-type cytochrome, which is the same size as the fumarate reductase enzyme. CMTn-3 retained the wild-type ability to use nitrate, iron(III), manganese(IV) and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) as terminal electron acceptors. The results indicate that the loss of the fumarate reductase enzyme does not affect other anaerobic electron transport systems in this bacterium.[1]
