Two oxidases of the o-type in membranes of the methanol-grown obligate methylotroph Methylobacillus flagellatum KT were distinguished. For this purpose the kinetic analysis of the laser flash-induced optical absorbance changes of CO-oxidase complexes under reducing conditions was used. The ratio of these oxidases in membranes greatly depended on the phases of bacterial growth. One of the oxidases appeared to belong to the Escherichia coli o-type oxidase family being more sensitive to KCN (Ki = 1 microM). It showed monophasic CO recombination kinetics with tau 25-30 ms and was expressed in the early exponential phase of growth. The other oxidase seemed to be similar to the Bacillus sp. FTU o-type oxidase being less sensitive to KCN (Ki = 6 microM), having three-phasic CO reassociation kinetics with tau 35-70 microseconds, 0.25-0.5 ms and 2-4 ms and dominating in the stationary growth phase. Pyridine haemochrome spectra showed haems A and D to be absent from the bacterial membranes.
