  • Both physiological and biochemical studies have demonstrate that Fe(Ⅲ)-EDTA is a favorite soluble Fe(Ⅲ) of strain SF3. The UV-visible spectra of dithionite-reduced, soluble Fe(Ⅲ) reoxidized cell extracts indicates the involvement of c-type cytochromes in Fe(Ⅲ) reduction. Fractionation experiments suggest that 87% of the Fe(Ⅲ) reducing activity is localized at soluble fraction, 74% of the Fe(Ⅲ)-reducing activity is found in the spheroplasts, which may indicate a distinct mechanism for Fe(Ⅲ) reduction. Fe(Ⅲ) reductase of strain SF3 exhibits the highest activity at 25 ℃, pH 74, and shows a great oxygen-tolerance ability.
